JAYDESS ® CMI Vx3.0 1 JAYDESS ® (JAY·DESS) _ _ _levonorgestrel intrauterine delivery system _ CONSUMER MEDICINE INFORMATION WHAT IS IN THIS LEAFLET This leaflet answers some common questions about Jaydess. It does not contain all the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your doctor or pharmacist. All medicines have risks and benefits. Your doctor has weighed the risks of you using Jaydess against the benefits they expect it will have for you. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT USING THIS MEDICINE, ASK YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST. KEEP THIS LEAFLET. You may need to read it again. WHAT JAYDESS IS USED FOR Jaydess consists of a small T- shaped frame made from a plastic called polyethylene. This carries 13.5 mg levonorgestrel, a hormone used in many contraceptive pills. The hormone is contained within a substance called dimethylsiloxane/methylvinylsil oxane cross linked elastomer and is surrounded by a membrane (skin) also made of the same elastomer. This structure provides a system for releasing the hormone gradually into the uterus (womb). There are two fine, brown threads, made of iron oxide and polyethylene, attached to the bottom of the white frame. These allow easy removal and allow you or your doctor to check that the system is in place. Jaydess is used for the prevention of pregnancy. It is placed inside the womb where it slowly releases the hormone over a period of three years or until it is removed. The hormone in Jaydess prevents pregnancy by: • controlling the monthly development of the womb lining so that it is not thick enough for you to become pregnant • making the normal mucus in the cervical canal (opening to the womb) thicker, so that the sperm cannot get through to fertilise the egg • there are also local effects on the lining of the womb caused by the presence of the T-shaped frame - since Jaydess is an intrauterine system (IUS) • affecting the movement of sperm inside the womb, preventing fertilisation.

JAYDESS Data Sheet Vx3.0, CCDS 12 1 NEW ZEALAND DATA SHEET 1. PRODUCT NAME JAYDESS ® 13.5 mg intrauterine contraceptive device 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION JAYDESS is an intrauterine system (IUS) containing 13.5 mg levonorgestrel. For details of release rates, see Section 5.2. For the full list of excipients, see Section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM JAYDESS consists of a whitish or pale yellow core covered with a semi-opaque membrane, which is mounted on the vertical stem of a T-body. In addition, the vertical stem contains a silver ring located close to the horizontal arms. The white T-body has a loop at one end of the vertical stem and two horizontal arms at the other end. Brown coloured removal threads are attached to the loop. The vertical stem of the IUS is loaded in the insertion tube at the tip of the inserter. The IUS and inserter are essentially free of visible impurities. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Contraception for up to 3 years. 4.2 DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION JAYDESS is inserted into the uterine cavity and is effective for up to three years. The _in vivo_ release rate is approximately 14 µg/24 hours after 24 days and is reduced to approximately 10 µg/24 hours after 60 days. It then declines progressively to 6 µg/24 hours after one year and 5 µg/24 hours after three years. The average levonorgestrel _in vivo_ release rate is approximately 8 µg/24 hours over the first year of use and 6 µg/24 hours over the period of three years. JAYDESS, when inserted according to the insertion instructions, has a failure rate of approximately 0.4% at 1 year and a cumulative failure rate of approximately 0.9% at 3 years. The failure rate also includes pregnancies due to undetected expulsions and uterine perforations. Care must therefore be given to undertake adequate training in the correct insertion technique and ensure the availability of appropriate instruments for the insertion of JAYDESS. 4.2.1 MEDICAL EXAMINATION/CONSULTATION Before insertion, the woman must be Lees het volledige document
