INDICATIONS and IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for EXXUA
INDICATIONS
EXXUA is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric and young adult patients in short-term studies. Closely monitor all antidepressant-treated patients for clinical worsening and emergence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
EXXUA is not approved for use in pediatric patients.
Do not take EXXUA if you:
are allergic to EXXUA or any of the ingredients in EXXUA.
have a prolonged QTc interval greater than 450 msec or congenital long QT syndrome.
are taking medicines known as strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Ask your healthcare provider if you are not sure if you are taking one of these medicines.
have severe liver problems.
are taking, or have stopped taking within the last 14 days, a medicine called a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), including the antibiotic linezolid or intravenous methylene blue.

Do not start taking an MAOI for at least 14 days after you have stopped treatment with EXXUA.
EXXUA may cause serious side effects, including:
Changes in the electrical activity of your heart called QT prolongation. QT prolongation can cause irregular heartbeats that can be life-threatening. Your healthcare provider will check the electrical activity of your heart with a test called an electrocardiogram (ECG) and will also do blood tests to check your levels of body salts (electrolytes) before and during treatment with EXXUA. Your healthcare provider may check your electrolytes more often during treatment if you have heart failure, a slow heart rate, abnormal levels of electrolytes in your blood, or if you take other medications that can prolong the QT interval of your heartbeat.

Manic episodes may happen in people with bipolar disorder who take EXXUA.
