Dose and schedule Taking selumetinib as instructed is important to allow your child’s treatment to be as effective as possible, so here are some key points to remember. Your child’s dose is based on many factors, including their height and weight, overall health, and diagnosis. Selumetinib should be taken on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal or snack). Selumetinib should be taken whole and not crushed, cut, or dissolved. If your child is unable to swallow selumetinib, talk to your child’s care provider or pharmacist for possible options. If your child misses a dose of selumetinib, follow these guidelines: • Do not have your child take the missed dose if it is less than 6 hours until their next scheduled dose. Simply have your child take the next dose at the regularly scheduled time. • Do not have your child take two doses at one time. • Be sure to write down if your child misses a dose, and let your care provider know about any missed doses. Drug and food interactions Selumetinib has many drug interactions. Please inform your child’s care providers of all prescription medications, over the counter medications, vitamins, and herbal products. Grapefruit or grapefruit juice may interact with selumetinib; have your child avoid eating or drinking these during treatment with selumetinib. Selumetinib should be taken on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal or snack).

Dose and schedule Taking thioguanine as instructed is important to allow your treatment to be as effective as possible, so here are some key points to remember. Your dose is based on many factors, including your height and weight, overall health, and diagnosis. Thioguanine can be taken with or without food, but at the same time each day. Thioguanine should be taken whole and not crushed, cut, or dissolved. If you are unable to swallow thioguanine, talk to your care provider or pharmacist for possible options. If you miss a dose of thioguanine, do not take an extra dose or two doses at one time. Simply take your next dose at the regularly scheduled time. Be sure to write down if you miss a dose, and let your care provider know about any missed doses. Storage and handling Handle thioguanine with care. Just like when chemotherapy is given into the vein, this drug can be toxic, and exposure of the drug to others should be limited. Store thioguanine at room temperature 68°F–77°F in a dry location away from light. Keep thioguanine out of reach of children and pets. Leave thioguanine in the provided packaging until it is ready to be taken. Whenever possible, you should give thioguanine to yourself and follow the steps below. If a family member, friend, or caregiver needs to give the thioguanine to you, they also need to follow these steps. 1. Wash hands with soap and water. 2. Put on gloves to avoid touching the medication. Gloves are not necessary if you give the drug to yourself. 3.

Remove gloves and do not use them for anything else. 6. Throw gloves and medicine cup in household trash. 7. Wash hands with soap and water. If a daily pill box or pill reminder is used, a separate one should be used for thioguanine. Do not mix other medications into the box with thioguanine. The person filling the box or reminder should wear gloves. Gloves are not necessary if you are filling the box or reminder. When empty, the box or reminder should be washed with soap and water before refilling. Be sure to wash hands with soap and water after the task is complete, whether or not gloves are worn. THIOGUANINE ORAL CHEMOTHERAPY EDUCATION Page 2 If you have any unused thioguanine, do not throw it in the trash and do not flush it down the sink or toilet. Talk to your care provider or pharmacist about proper disposal of thioguanine. If you are traveling, put your thioguanine in a sealed plastic bag. Ask your pharmacist if any additional travel precautions are needed. Handling body fluids and waste Since thioguanine remains in your body for several days after it is taken, some of the drug may be present in urine, stool, sweat, or vomit. Once you have started to take thioguanine, it is important to know the following instructions every day for as long as your treatment lasts. This is to keep yourself, loved ones, and the environment as safe as possible. Pregnant women should avoid touching anything that may be soiled with body fluids from the patient. Toilet and septic systems You may use the same toilet, septic tank, and/or sewer that you usually use. If you have a low flow toilet, close the lid and flush twice to ensure all waste has been discarded.
