Data regarding the safety of restarting treatment after missing a dose of RAGWITEK are limited. In the clinical trials, treatment interruptions for up to seven days were allowed.

Prescribe auto-injectable epinephrine to patients prescribed RAGWITEK and instruct them (or their parents/guardians) in the proper use of auto-injectable epinephrine.
