Proper Use
A nurse or other trained health professional will give you this medicine in a hospital or clinic. It will be given as a shot into one of your muscles.
Your doctor will give you a few doses of this medicine until your condition improves, and then switch you to an oral medicine that works the same way. If you have any concerns about this, talk to your doctor.
This medicine comes with a Medication Guide. It is very important that you read and understand this information. Be sure to ask your doctor about anything you do not understand.
