IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Accidental Exposure to VYJUVEK gel: VYJUVEK will not replicate in the subject’s cells and does not integrate into the subject cells’ native genetic material. For precautions, avoid direct contact with treated wounds (e.g., touching or scratching) and dressings of treated wounds until the next dressing change following treatment. Wear protective gloves when assisting patients with changing wound dressings and handling the disposal. In the event of accidental exposure (e.g., through a splash to the eyes or mucous membranes), flush with clean water for at least 15 minutes.

Clean all surfaces that may have come in contact with VYJUVEK biological suspension or gel and treat all spills with a virucidal agent.

Dispose all materials (e.g., vial, syringe, cleaning materials) that may have come in contact with VYJUVEK biological suspension or gel into a biohazard container.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common adverse reactions (>5%) were itching, chills, redness, rash, cough, and runny nose.
