It is very important that your doctor check your progress at regular visits to make sure that this medicine is working properly. Blood tests may be needed to check for unwanted effects.
Receiving this medicine while you are pregnant can harm your unborn baby. If you are a woman who can bear children, your doctor may give you a pregnancy test 7 days before you start receiving this medicine to make sure you are not pregnant. Use a highly effective form of birth control to keep from getting pregnant during treatment and for 1 year after your last dose. If you think you have become pregnant while receiving the medicine, tell your doctor right away.
Talk with your doctor before receiving this medicine if you plan to have children. Some men and women who receive this medicine have become infertile (unable to have children).
This medicine may increase your risk of bleeding. This is more likely to occur if you have bleeding problems or if you are taking a blood thinner (eg, warfarin). Tell your doctor right away if you have unusual bleeding or bruising after receiving this medicine.
This medicine may cause you to have bleeding from the vagina, especially when you first start receiving it. If the bleeding continues or is bothersome, check with your doctor right away.
