Dosing

How should I take EDURANT®?

  • Take EDURANT® every day exactly as your healthcare professional tells you to
  • Take EDURANT® 1 time each day with a meal. A protein drink alone does not replace a meal
  • Do not change your dose or stop taking EDURANT® without first talking with your healthcare professional. Stay under the care of your healthcare professional during treatment with EDURANT®
  • Do not miss a dose of EDURANT®
  • If you take an H2-receptor antagonist (famotidine, cimetidine, nizatidine, or ranitidine), you should take these medicines at least 12 hours before or at least 4 hours after you take EDURANT®
  • If you take antacids, or other products that contain aluminum, calcium carbonate, or magnesium hydroxide, you should take these medicines at least 2 hours before or at least 4 hours after you take EDURANT®
  • If you miss a dose of EDURANT® within 12 hours of the time you usually take it, take your dose of EDURANT® with a meal as soon as possible. Then, take your next dose of EDURANT® at the regularly scheduled time. If you miss a dose of EDURANT® by more than 12 hours of the time you usually take it, wait and then take the next dose of EDURANT® at the regularly scheduled time
  • Do not take more than your prescribed dose to make up for a missed dose
  • If you take too much EDURANT®, call your healthcare professional or go to the nearest hospital emergency room right away
  • When your supply of EDURANT® starts to run low, get more from your healthcare professional or pharmacy. It is important not to run out of EDURANT®. The amount of HIV in your blood may increase if the medicine is stopped even for a short time.

  • When your healthcare professional prescribes use of EDURANT® with oral VOCABRIA (cabotegravir):
    • Take EDURANT® and oral VOCABRIA (cabotegravir) once a day at approximately the same time with a meal.
    • You will receive treatment with EDURANT® tablets in combination with oral VOCABRIA (cabotegravir) tablets for one month (at least 28 days) before you receive the long-acting medicine called CABENUVA (cabotegravir; rilpivirine extended-release injectable suspensions) for the first time. This will allow your healthcare professional to assess how well you tolerate these medicines.
    • Your final dose of EDURANT® and oral VOCABRIA should be taken on the same day you receive your first CABENUVA injections.
    • If you miss or plan to miss a scheduled monthly or every 2 months injection of CABENUVA by more than 7 days, call your healthcare professional right away to discuss your treatment options.
