Preparation and Administration
HYMPAVZI is intended for use under the guidance of a healthcare provider. After proper instruction in subcutaneous injection technique, a patient 12 years and older may self-inject or the patient’s caregiver may administer HYMPAVZI, if a healthcare provider determines that it is appropriate.
Refer to the Instructions for Use for complete preparation and administration instructions.
Prior to subcutaneous administration, HYMPAVZI may be removed from the refrigerator and allowed to warm at room temperature [up to 86°F (30°C)] in the carton for 15 to 30 minutes protected from direct sunlight. Do not warm by using a heat source such as hot water or a microwave. After removal of HYMPAVZI from the refrigerator, use within 7 days or discard [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling ] .
Administer HYMPAVZI by subcutaneous injection, once weekly, at any time of the day in the abdomen or front of thigh. Other injection sites are acceptable if required. Administration of HYMPAVZI in the back of upper arm (prefilled syringe only) or buttocks (prefilled pen only) should be performed by a caregiver or healthcare professional only.
HYMPAVZI should not be administered into bony areas or areas where the skin is bruised, red, tender or hard, or areas where there are scars or stretch marks. HYMPAVZI should not be injected into a vein. Rotate the injection site with each new injection.
During treatment with HYMPAVZI, other medicinal products for subcutaneous administration should, preferably, be injected at different anatomical sites.
Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. HYMPAVZI is a clear and colorless to light yellow solution. Do not use if the solution is cloudy, dark yellow, or contains flakes or particles.

Pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action, HYMPAVZI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] . There are no available data on HYMPAVZI use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Female animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with HYMPAVZI. Although there are no data on marstacimab‑hncq, monoclonal antibodies can be actively transported across the placenta, and marstacimab‑hncq may cause fetal harm. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown.
All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
For breastfeeding, also see LactMed (National Library of Medicine), which summarizes milk levels and infant effects.
