How to use Fingomod Capsule

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Fingomod Capsule may be taken with or without food.

How Fingomod Capsule works

Fingomod Capsule is a sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator. In multiple sclerosis, the immune cells (lymphocytes) attack the nervous system and deteriorate their functioning. This medicine works by reducing the number of lymphocytes in the body, thereby stopping them from entering the brain and affecting the central nervous system (the brain and nerves). Thus, Fingomod Capsule treats the condition and also prevents any recurrence of the disease.

Quick tips

Fingomod Capsule can be taken with or without food or as directed by your doctor.
You may be monitored with ECG and blood pressure before treatment and after 6 hours of dose intake.
It makes your skin sensitive towards sunlight. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing while going out.
Inform your doctor if you experience a change in vision, sensitivity to light and blurriness.
Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Do not stop taking medicine without talking to your doctor first.

Safety advice

Alcohol

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR

It is not known whether it is safe to consume alcohol with Fingomod Capsule. Please consult your doctor.

Pregnancy

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR

The safety of Fingomod Capsule during pregnancy has not been established. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women, and animal data on reproductive toxicity are insufficient. Your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing.

Breast feeding

CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR

Fingomod Capsule may be unsafe to use during breastfeeding. Limited human data suggests that the drug may pass into the breastmilk and harm the baby. It should be used only if the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk. Please consult your doctor.

Driving

UNSAFE

Fingomod Capsule may decrease alertness, affect your vision, or make you feel sleepy and dizzy. Do not drive if these symptoms occur.

Kidney

CAUTION

Fingomod Capsule should be used with caution in patients with severe kidney disease. Dose adjustment may be needed.
For patients with mild and moderate kidney disease, Fingomod Capsule must be taken with proper consultation with the doctor.

Liver

CAUTION

Fingomod Capsule should be used with caution in patients with liver disease. Dose adjustment may be needed.
Fingomod Capsule is probably safe for patients with mild and moderate liver disease. However, proper consultation is advised before the initiation of the treatment.

Interaction with drugs

Taking Fingomod with any of the following medicines can modify the effect of either of them and cause some undesirable side effects

Severe

Crizotinib (Oral Route)

Careful consideration is advised when taking Fingolimod with Crizotinib. Watch out for symptoms such as back pain, diarrhea, headache, increased thirst, confusion or dizziness and consult your doctor if you experience them. They may monitor and adjust the doses as per the observations. Factors such as old age, chronic heart issues, or low potassium levels may more frequently cause disturbance in heart rhythm, and your doctor may consider ECG monitoring in their presence. Crizotinib may raise blood levels of Fingolimod.

Severe

Erythromycin (Oral Route)

Careful consideration is advised when taking Fingolimod with Erythromycin. Watch out for symptoms such as back pain, diarrhea, headache, increased thirst, confusion or dizziness and consult your doctor if you experience them. They may monitor and adjust the doses as per the observations. Factors such as old age, chronic heart issues, or low potassium levels may more frequently cause disturbance in heart rhythm, and your doctor may consider ECG monitoring in their presence.

Frequently asked questions

What is Fingomod Capsule used for?

Fingomod Capsule treats relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) in adults and children 10 years and older, including clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing‑remitting MS, and active secondary progressive MS.

Why is the first dose of Fingomod Capsule monitored in a clinic/hospital setting?

The first dose of Fingomod Capsule can slow the heart and cause abnormal heart rhythms. Therefore, pulse, blood pressure, and an ECG are checked for at least 6 hours, with longer or overnight monitoring if heart rate stays low, an AV block appears, symptoms occur, etc.

Who must not take Fingomod Capsule?

People should not take Fingomod Capsule if there has been a recent heart attack, stroke/TIA, unstable angina, or decompensated/advanced heart failure. It should also not be used if there are certain heart rhythm problems without a pacemaker (if baseline QTc is 500 ms), if taking antiarrhythmic medicines (Class Ia or III), or if there is a known allergy to fingolimod.

What infections are a concern with Fingomod Capsule?

Fingomod Capsule lowers certain white blood cells and can raise infection risk, including serious infections like shingles, herpes encephalitis, opportunistic infections (e.g., cryptococcal meningitis, atypical mycobacteria), and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Report any infection symptoms during treatment and for 2 months after stopping Fingomod Capsule treatment.

Do vaccines work normally while on Fingomod Capsule?

Vaccine response can be weaker, and live vaccines should be avoided during Fingomod Capsule treatment and for 2 months after stopping. Patients without chickenpox immunity should receive varicella vaccination before starting this medicine and wait about 1 month before the first dose.

Can Fingomod Capsule affect vision?

Yes, Fingomod Capsule may cause macular edema (swelling in the central part of the retina), usually within the first 3 to 4 months of treatment. Regular eye check-ups are recommended—before starting the medicine, at 3 to 4 months, and then periodically. You should also get your eyes checked right away if you notice any changes in vision, especially if you have diabetes or a history of uveitis (eye inflammation).

What liver warnings should be known during Fingomod Capsule use?

Fingomod Capsule can cause serious liver injury, sometimes early or after long use. Liver enzymes and bilirubin are checked before starting, during treatment, and for 2 months after stopping this medicine. Any symptoms like jaundice or dark urine require urgent testing.

Are there cancer risks with Fingomod Capsule?

Increased risk of skin cancers (basal cell carcinoma, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, Kaposi’s sarcoma, Merkel cell carcinoma) and lymphomas has been reported with Fingomod Capsule use. Periodic skin exams are recommended, limit UV/sun exposure, use high‑SPF sunscreen, and promptly evaluate and report any suspicious skin lesions to your doctor.

What monitoring should be expected before and during Fingomod Capsule treatment?

Before starting Fingomod Capsule treatment, your doctor may monitor ECG, recent CBC, liver tests, eye exam, VZV antibody status, skin exam, and review of other immunosuppressants. Similarly, during Fingomod Capsule treatment, your doctor may monitor blood pressure checks, infection vigilance, periodic liver tests, eye exams, and continued caution for 2 months after stopping due to lingering effects of this medicine.
