THERE ARE 2 STEPS TO COMPLETE BEFORE STARTING MAYZENT
STEP 1—PRETESTS

Before beginning MAYZENT, a few simple blood tests are needed that will help:
-
Identify your genotype* to determine if MAYZENT is right for you, and which dose to take
-
Check your liver function
-
Obtain a complete blood count
To make these simple blood tests as easy as possible, your doctor has options to complete the testing: at your doctor's office, at a single in-home visit, or at a nearby medical facility.†
No matter which option you choose, Novartis will cover the cost of genetic type testing.

EYE EXAM
- An eye exam will look for preexisting conditions and help monitor potential changes

ECG
- An electrocardiogram (ECG) will test whether you will need to take extra care if you have certain heart conditions
STEP 2—START TAKING MAYZENT

- Once pretests are finished and dosage is determined, your treatment with MAYZENT can begin immediately, for all commercially insured and approved government-insured patients
-
You'll begin titration. This means you'll slowly increase the dose to help your body adjust, following your doctor's guidance
- Then, you'll take your regular daily MAYZENT dose, as prescribed
- Titration is important, so do not skip this step. Your Alongside MAYZENT Coordinator will be there to walk you through this process
Members of Alongside MAYZENT will receive a Welcome Kit with all the info needed to start treatment. Your dedicated Coordinator will also walk you through the step-by-step guide to titration and schedule a supplemental video chat demonstration, if you'd like.
Although most people starting MAYZENT will not need to be monitored after taking their first dose, it's required for some people.‡ Your doctor will tell you if it's necessary.
