Getting started–
what to know
We’ll walk you through what you need to know before your first infusion.
Esperoct® is administered by intravenous injection, either at a hemophilia treatment center, a healthcare provider’s office, or at home after you’ve received training. Do not administer Esperoct® yourself unless you have been shown how by a healthcare provider.

Prepare Esperoct® in 3 simple steps
Esperoct® comes with a MixPro® syringe that simplifies the reconstitution process into three quick steps.
Please note, these are not the complete Esperoct® Instructions for Use. Please see the Instructions for Use provided with the Prescribing Information.
Attach: Remove the plastic cap from the vial and wipe the stopper with an alcohol swab. Place the vial adapter over the vial and press down firmly until the adapter spike pierces the rubber stopper.
Twist: Connect the plunger rod to the syringe and twist the rod clockwise into the rubber plunger inside the syringe until it stops. Break off the syringe cap and screw the MixPro® syringe tip onto the vial adapter until tight.
Mix: Push the plunger to inject the diluent into the vial. Without removing syringe, gently swirl the Esperoct® vial until all of the powder is dissolved. Do not shake the vial. Check the reconstituted Esperoct for particulate matter and discoloration. The solution should be clear with no particles. Discard if either exist.

Infusion steps

- Attach the syringe to the luer end of an infusion needle set. Do not administer Esperoct® in the same tubing or container with other medicines.
- Infuse the reconstituted Esperoct® intravenously slowly over about 2 minutes.
Please note, these are not the complete Esperoct® Instructions for Use. Please see the Instructions for Use provided with the Prescribing Information.
