Always take DOJOLVI exactly as your LC-FAOD healthcare team advises
Before taking DOJOLVI, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
- are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if DOJOLVI will harm your unborn baby
- are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if DOJOLVI passes into breast milk
- are taking a pancreatic lipase inhibitor, such as orlistat, as it may affect how well DOJOLVI works
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements
If you are taking another medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) product, stop taking the MCT before starting DOJOLVI
Use an oral syringe or a measuring cup to measure the prescribed dose of DOJOLVI
Do not mix or give DOJOLVI using containers, oral syringes, or measuring cups made of polystyrene (a type of plastic that can be solid or foam) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a solid plastic material
Mix or give DOJOLVI using containers, oral syringes, or measuring cups made of materials such as stainless steel, glass, or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene, low-density polyethylene (LDPE), polyurethane, and silicone (types of plastic materials). After use, rinse materials and containers well with cold water and wipe dry
Take DOJOLVI at least 4 times a day with meals or snacks, and always mix well with soft food or drink or medical food or formula before taking. Do not take DOJOLVI alone to avoid stomach upset
If you take DOJOLVI by mouth, mix well with soft food or drink such as:
- Plain or artificially sweetened fat-free yogurt
- Fat-free milk, formula, or cottage cheese
- Whole-grain hot cereal
- Fat-free, low-carbohydrate pudding, smoothies, applesauce, or baby food
The unused DOJOLVI mixture may be stored for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
If not used within 24 hours, throw away (dispose of) the DOJOLVI mixture in the trash. Do not pour down the sink. Do not save for later.
If you give DOJOLVI by feeding tube, mix well with medical food or formula before giving by a feeding tube y-connector, or feeding tube extension set.
Feeding tubes may not work as well or stop working over time when taking DOJOLVI. Do not use DOJOLVI in feeding tubes made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Check the feeding tube to make sure it is working properly and not breaking down.
If you miss a dose, take the next dose as soon as possible. Take the following doses 3 to 4 hours apart. If it is not possible to take all the doses for the day, skip the missed dose.
Speak to your healthcare team and see the Instructions for Use included with the Patient Information for more information.
