Ibrexafungerp is contraindicated in pregnancy because it may cause fetal harm based on findings from animal reproductive studies.
For females of reproductive potential, verify that the patient is not pregnant prior to initiating ibrexafungerp treatment. Reassessing pregnancy status prior to each dose is recommended when ibrexafungerp is used monthly for 6 months for reduction in the incidence of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC).
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis and throughout the 6-month treatment period for reduction in the incidence of RVVC with ibrexafungerp and for 4 days after the last dose.
Candidiasis, vulvovaginal: Postmenarchal Children and Adolescents: Oral: 300 mg every 12 hours for 2 doses.
Candidiasis, vulvovaginal, recurrent (reduction in incidence): Postmenarchal Children and Adolescents: Oral: 300 mg every 12 hours for 1 day (2 doses); repeat monthly for 6 months. Note: In clinical trials, participants had experienced ≥3 episodes in the previous year and received fluconazole treatment for symptomatic treatment of their recurrent episode prior to initiating ibrexafungerp.
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling.
Postmenarchal Children and Adolescents:
Mild to moderate impairment (Child-Pugh classes A and B): No dosage adjustment necessary.

(For additional information see "Ibrexafungerp: Drug information")
Candidiasis, vulvovaginal:
Acute infection, treatment (alternative agent):
Note: For mild/moderate infection in immunocompetent patients (Ref); some experts also use for patients with severe infection (Ref). Reserve for those who cannot take fluconazole or have infection that is refractory or resistant to fluconazole (Ref).
Oral: 300 mg every 12 hours for 1 day (2 doses) (Ref).
Recurrent infection, reduction in incidence: Oral: 300 mg every 12 hours for 1 day (2 doses); repeat monthly for a total of 6 months. Note: In clinical trials, participants had experienced ≥3 episodes in the previous year and received fluconazole for symptomatic treatment of their recurrent episode prior to initiating ibrexafungerp for reducing incidence of recurrent infection.
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling.
Mild to moderate impairment (Child-Pugh classes A and B): No dosage adjustment necessary.
Severe impairment (Child-Pugh class C): There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (has not been studied).

The Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) includes this medication among its list of drugs that have a heightened risk of causing significant patient harm when used in error.
Substrate of CYP3A4 (major), P-glycoprotein/ABCB1 (minor); Note: Assignment of Major/Minor substrate status based on clinically relevant drug interaction potential
Note: Interacting drugs may not be individually listed below if they are part of a group interaction (eg, individual drugs within “CYP3A4 Inducers [Strong]” are NOT listed).

Verify pregnancy status prior to treatment initiation and also reassess prior to each monthly dose when used for recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC).
When used for the single-day treatment of VVC, patients who may become pregnant should use effective contraception during therapy and for 4 days after the last ibrexafungerp dose. When used for recurrent VVC, effective contraception should be used throughout the 6-month treatment period and for 4 days after the last dose of ibrexafungerp.
Based on data from animal reproduction studies, in utero exposure to ibrexafungerp may cause fetal harm. Use during pregnancy is contraindicated.
Data collection to monitor pregnancy and infant outcomes following exposure to ibrexafungerp is ongoing. Health care providers are encouraged to enroll patients exposed to ibrexafungerp during pregnancy in the Pregnancy Registry (1-888-982-7299). Patients whose pregnancy is detected within 4 days after exposure should also be enrolled.
Pregnancy testing prior to initiating treatment; reassess pregnancy status prior to each monthly dose (when used for reduction in incidence of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis).
