Oxlumo
Oxlumo
OXLUMO® (lumasiran) is a prescription medication used to treat primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), a rare genetic disorder that leads to the overproduction of oxalate in the body that affects your kidneys.
This condition can cause kidney stones, kidney failure, and damage to other organs, due to the accumulation of oxalate in the kidneys and other tissues. Oxlumo works by targeting production of oxalate that is being made in the liver and reducing the amount the body has to then process.
Administration Information
Oxlumo is given as a subcutaneous injection by a healthcare provider. Dosing happens in 2 phases. The first phase includes 3 doses that are given monthly. The second phase includes the 4th dose to then continue ongoing doses every quarter (1 injection every 3 months depending on patient’s weight).
Potential Side Effects
The most common adverse reaction reported was injection site reaction. Injection site reactions included erythema, swelling, pain, hematoma, pruritus, and discoloration. These symptoms were generally mild and resolved within one day of the injection.
