Compared to women with normal liver function, those with moderate hepatic impairment had approximately 3-fold higher elagolix exposures and those with severe hepatic impairment had approximately 7-fold higher elagolix exposures. Because of these increased exposures and risk for bone loss, the use of elagolix is contraindicated in women with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C). In women with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B) elagolix 150 mg is recommended once daily with the duration of treatment limited to 6 months. No dose adjustment is needed for women with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A).

Osteoporosis

Major:

elagolix

Elagolix has a major potential interaction with Osteoporosis.

Elagolix is contraindicated in women with known osteoporosis because of the risk of further bone loss. Elagolix causes a dose-dependent decrease in bone mineral density (BMD), which is greater with increasing duration of use and may not be completely reversible after stopping treatment.
