Starting Treatment for Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis (ISM)
What comes next in your treatment journey?
Many patients have questions about the next steps in their treatment plan and when to expect results. After you’ve been prescribed AYVAKIT, find out what to expect in the coming months to ensure you’re prepared.
AYVAKIT may take time to see results. In the clinical trial, symptom reduction was evaluated at 6 months.
Receiving your prescription
Once you've been prescribed AYVAKIT, your doctor sends your prescription to an eligible pharmacy or to YourBlueprint®.
The pharmacy will verify your insurance coverage and work directly with your healthcare provider to obtain prior authorization if needed.
If coverage is approved, your pharmacy will contact you to communicate your out-of-pocket costs and arrange for delivery or pickup of your medication.
How do I take AYVAKIT?
One 25 mg tablet
Taken once a day
On an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or at least 2 hours after a meal
The recommended dose of AYVAKIT is 25 mg orally once daily in adults with indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM).
Talk to your doctor if you have questions about your treatment. Take AYVAKIT exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking AYVAKIT unless your doctor tells you to.
If you miss a dose of AYVAKIT, take it as soon as you remember, unless your next scheduled dose is due within 8 hours. Then, take the next dose at your regular time.
If you vomit after taking a dose of AYVAKIT, do not take an extra dose. Take your next dose at your next scheduled time.
