What to know before you start
YUVIWEL is a once-weekly injection. It can be given at any time of day that fits your family routine best. There’s no need to plan around meals, snacks, or bedtimes.
Once weekly means 313 injection-free days per year, so you and your child can focus on the growing up that matters most.
While it’s best for YUVIWEL to be given on the same day each week, sometimes life happens and plans change. So, it’s good to know that the dosing day can be adjusted to 2 days before or 2 days after the planned dosing day if needed. Resume once-weekly dosing for the next dose at the usual dosing day.
Missed doses:
- If more than 2 days have passed from the scheduled dosing day, skip the missed dose and give YUVIWEL on the next regularly scheduled day
- There should be at least 5 days between doses
Switch without missing a treatment day: Your child can start once-weekly YUVIWEL the day after their last dose of
their daily CNP treatment.
YUVIWEL is easy to store. Unmixed YUVIWEL can be kept in the fridge or at room temperature.
Ascendis supports you with free at-home injection training, so you can learn how to give YUVIWEL to your child safely and properly.
Once-weekly dosing reduces space, storage, and supplies needed for injections. Each carton of YUVIWEL contains 4 small kits with everything you need for 4 weekly injections.
