What is the Most Important Information I Should Know About EPIDIOLEX (cannabidiol)?

EPIDIOLEX may cause liver problems. Your doctor may order blood tests to check your liver before and during EPIDIOLEX treatment. In some cases, EPIDIOLEX treatment may need to be stopped. Call your doctor right away if you start to have any of these signs and symptoms of liver problems during treatment with EPIDIOLEX:

• loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting
• itching
• fever, feeling unwell, unusual tiredness
• unusual darkening of the urine
• yellowing of the skin or the whites of the eyes (jaundice)
• right upper stomach area pain or discomfort

EPIDIOLEX may cause you to feel sleepy, which may get better over time. Other medicines (e.g., clobazam) or alcohol may increase sleepiness. Do not drive, operate heavy machinery, or do other dangerous activities until you know how EPIDIOLEX affects you.

Like other antiseizure medicines, EPIDIOLEX may cause suicidal thoughts or actions in a very small number of people, about 1 in 500.

Take EPIDIOLEX exactly as your doctor tells you. Do not stop taking EPIDIOLEX without first talking to your doctor. Stopping an antiseizure medicine suddenly can cause serious problems.
