Reproductive health CONSIDERATIONS
Tell your healthcare provider if you're pregnant or plan to become pregnant as VORANIGO may harm an unborn baby. It may affect fertility in females and males, which can impact the ability to have children. You’re encouraged to discuss family planning options with your healthcare provider, including referral to an onco-fertility specialist.

- You should continue to use nonhormonal birth control for 3 months after you stop treatment
Can I breastfeed?
- You should not breastfeed during treatment and for 2 months after you stop treatment
- It is not known if VORANIGO passes into breast milk
For males with female partners who can become pregnant:
Should I use contraception?
- You should use effective contraception during treatment and for 3 months after you stop treatment
- VORANIGO will not affect your partner’s hormonal birth control
