VIGABATRIN REMS PROGRAM FOR PRESCRIBERS

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a single shared system Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) for all vigabatrin products called the Vigabatrin REMS Program. It is required by the FDA to ensure informed risk-benefit decisions before initiating treatment and to ensure appropriate use of vigabatrin while patients are treated.

Visit the Vigabatrin REMS website for instructions and the FDA-mandated REMS forms.
