Before taking selumetinib, tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including: heart problems, eye problems, and liver problems.

What are the important precautions when using Selumetinib?

Females of reproductive age:

Your doctor should perform a pregnancy test before you start treatment.

Use effective contraception during treatment and for 1 week after the last dose.

If you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant during treatment, tell your doctor right away.

Males with female partners of reproductive age:

Use effective contraception during treatment and for 1 week after the last dose.

Breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed:

It is not known if selumetinib passes into breast milk. Do not breastfeed during treatment and for 1 week after the last dose. Talk to your doctor about the best way to feed your baby during this time.

Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over‑the‑counter medicines, vitamins, or herbal supplements. Certain medicines may affect how selumetinib works. Especially tell your doctor if you are taking supplements containing vitamin E, aspirin, anticoagulants, or other medicines used to treat blood clots.
