Consumer:

Before receiving treatment with sipuleucel-T, let your doctor know if you are currently using linezolid. Combining these medications may affect the safety and/or effectiveness of sipuleucel-T. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Neither the leukapheresis procedure nor sipuleucel-T has not been studied for use in combination with chemotherapy or immunosuppressive agents (e.g., systemic corticosteroids). Since sipuleucel-T is designed to stimulate the immune system, concurrent use of myelo- or immunosuppressive agents may alter the efficacy and/or safety of sipuleucel-T.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be carefully evaluated to determine whether it is medically appropriate to reduce or discontinue chemotherapy or immunosuppressive agents prior to treatment with sipuleucel-T.
