Welcome to our BRIXADI REMS (Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy) information page, designed to provide comprehensive details about the safe and effective use of BRIXADI in the treatment of moderate to severe opioid use disorder. At [Your Brand Name], we prioritize patient safety and regulatory compliance to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.

What is the BRIXADI REMS?

The BRIXADI REMS is a program mandated by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) to manage known or potential risks associated with BRIXADI. It ensures that the benefits of the medication outweigh its risks and focuses on preventing serious harm or death that could result from misuse, particularly intravenous self-administration.

BRIXADI is specifically intended for subcutaneous injection by a healthcare provider and is available only through a restricted distribution system under the BRIXADI REMS. It must never be dispensed directly to patients but administered in a healthcare setting under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

How to Obtain BRIXADI: Prescribers can obtain BRIXADI for their patients by sending a prescription to a REMS-certified pharmacy, which arranges delivery to coincide with the patient's scheduled appointment.
