Medication Guide
XIAFLEX® (Zī a flex)
(collagenase clostridium histolyticum)
For injection, for intralesional use
XIAFLEX is approved for two uses: Dupuytren's contracture and
Peyronie's disease. Information is provided
separately for each use. Use for treating Dupuytren's contracture is
described first, followed by use for
treating Peyronie's disease.
Read this Medication Guide before you receive XIAFLEX for the
treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture and
each time you get an injection. There may be new information. This
Medication Guide does not take the
place of talking with your healthcare provider about your medical
condition or treatment.
What is the most important information I should know about XIAFLEX for
the treatment of Dupuytren’s
contracture?
XIAFLEX may cause serious side effects, including:
1.
Tendon rupture or ligament damage. Receiving an injection of XIAFLEX
may cause damage to a
tendon or ligament in your hand and cause it to break or weaken. This
could require surgery to fix
the damaged tendon or ligament. Call your healthcare provider right
away if you have trouble
bending your injected finger (towards the wrist) after the swelling
goes down or you have problems
using your treated hand after your follow-up visit.
2.
Nerve injury or other serious injury of the hand. After finger
procedures, some people developed
tears in the skin (lacerations), and local skin and soft-tissue
necrosis (death of skin cells). Some
lacerations and necrosis required skin grafting, or other surgery
including amputation. Call your
healthcare provider right away if you get numbness, tingling,
increased pain, or tears in the skin
(laceration) in your treated finger or hand after your injection or
after your follow-up visit.
3.
Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis. Severe allergic
reactions can happen in people
who receive XIAFLEX, because it contains foreign proteins.
Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these
symptoms of an allergic reaction a
