Store Dupixent Pre-filled Syringe in the original carton in the refrigerator. Protect from light and do not freeze.

Take a syringe or pen out of the refrigerator and let it reach room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes before injecting your dose. Leave the needle cap on until you are ready to inject your dose.

You may store a prefilled syringe or injection pen at cool room temperature for up to 14 days. Throw the medicine away if not used within 14 days. Do not put it back into the refrigerator.

Each prefilled syringe or injection pen is for one use only. Throw it away after one use, even if there is still medicine left inside.

The pre-filled pen is for use in adults and children 12 years and older. The pre-filled syringe is for use in adults and children 6 months and older.

Use a needle and syringe or pen only once and then place them in a puncture-proof "sharps" container. Follow state or local laws about how to dispose of this container. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.

If you also use other medications to treat eczema or asthma, do not change your doses or stop using the other medications without your doctor's advice.
