Leniolisib

Leniolisib is used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who have activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta syndrome (APDS; an genetic condition that decreases the activity of the immune system and can result in recurrent infections, swollen lymph nodes and spleen, and a certain type of lymphoma [a type of blood cancer]). Leniolisib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the signals that cause abnormalities in the immune system, which improves the functions of the immune system.

Leniolisib comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken with or without food twice a day, about 12 hours apart. Take leniolisib at around the same times every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take leniolisib exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.

If you vomit with 1 hour after you take leniolisib, take another dose as soon as possible. If you vomit more than 1 hour after you take leniolisib, do not take another dose. Continue your regular dosing schedule.
