Laviv® is made especially for you from your own skin cells. Do not use someone else's skin cells because it may cause a serious reaction. Do not let anyone use your medicine.

This medicine may cause serious types of allergic reaction, including anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. Call your doctor right away if you have a rash; itching; hoarseness; trouble with breathing; trouble with swallowing; or any swelling of your hands, face, or mouth while you are receiving this medicine.

This medicine may increase your risk of bleeding or bruising at the injection site. Check with your doctor right away if you have large, flat, blue, or purplish patches in the skin; or unusual bleeding or bruising after receiving Laviv®. Make sure your doctor knows if you are taking aspirin, pain or arthritis medicine called NSAIDs (such as celecoxib, ibuprofen, naproxen, rofecoxib, valdecoxib, Advil®, Aleve®, Bextra®, Celebrex®, Motrin®, or Vioxx®), or a blood thinner (such as warfarin, Coumadin®).
