1. What is Rukobia and what is it used for

Rukobia contains fostemsavir and is a type of medicine against HIV (antiretroviral) known as

attachment inhibitor. It works by attaching to the virus and thus blocking its entry into the blood cells.
Rukobia is used with other antiretroviral medicines (combination therapy) to treat HIV infection in adults with limited treatment options (other antiretroviral medicines are not
sufficiently effective or are not adaptable).
Rukobia does not cure HIV infection; it reduces the amount of virus in the body and keeps it
at low levels. Since HIV reduces the number of CD4 cells in the body, keeping HIV at
a low level also contributes to increasing the number of CD4 cells in the blood. CD4 cells are a type of white blood cells that are important in helping the body fight infection.

2. What you need to know before taking Rukobia

Do not take Rukobia

• If you are allergic to fostemsaviror to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• If you are taking any of these medicines: or carbamazepine, or phenytoin(used to treat epilepsyand prevent convulsions) or mitotane(to treat various types of cancer) or enzalutamide(to treat prostate cancer) or rifampicin(to treat some bacterial infectionssuch as tuberculosis) or medicines that contain St John's wort( Hypericum perforatum) (a herbal product for depression).

➔ If you think any of these conditions apply to you, do not take Rukobiauntil you have
consulted your doctor.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everyone will experience them.
Therefore, it is very important to discuss any changes in your health with your doctor.
Symptoms of infection and inflammation are common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people)
People with advanced HIV infection (AIDS) have a weakened immune system and are more likely to develop serious infections (opportunistic infections). After starting treatment, the immune system becomes stronger, so the body begins to fight infections.
Symptoms of infection and inflammation may develop due to:

• old “silent” infections that re-emerge as the body fights them
• the immune system mistakenly attacking healthy tissues in the body (autoimmune disorders). Symptoms of autoimmune disorders can develop many months after starting to take the medicine to treat HIV infection.

Symptoms may include:

• muscle weaknessand/or pain
• painor swelling of the joints
• weaknessstarting in the hands and feet and spreading along the body
• palpitationsor tremor
• agitation and excessive movement(hyperactivity) If you experience any symptoms of infection and inflammationor notice any of the symptoms listed above: ➔ tell your doctor immediately. Do not take any other medicines for infection without consulting your doctor.

Very common side effects(may affect more than 1 in 10people):

• nausea
• diarrhea
• vomiting
• stomach pain (abdominal pain)
• headache
• skin rash ➔ See your doctorif you experience these side effects.

Common side effects(may affect up to 1 in 10people):

• indigestion (dyspepsia)
• lack of energy (fatigue)
• heart rhythm disturbances observed with an electrocardiogram ECG (QT prolongation)
• muscle pain (myalgia)
• feeling tired (somnolence)
• dizziness
• taste disturbances (dysgeusia)
• flatulence
• difficulty sleeping (insomnia)
• itching ➔ See your doctorif you experience these side effects

Some side effects can only be detected by blood tests and may not
be immediately apparent after taking Rukobia.
Common side effects that can be detected by blood tests are:

• increased levels of enzymes produced in the muscles (creatine phosphokinase, an indicator of muscle damage)
• increased creatinine, an indicator of kidney function
• increased levels of enzymes produced by the liver (transaminases, an indicator of liver damage).

Other side effects that can be detected by blood tests
Other side effects have occurred in some people, but their exact frequency is unknown:

• increased bilirubin (a substance produced by the liver) in the blood.

Joint pain, stiffness and bone problems
Some people taking combination therapy for HIV infection develop a
condition called osteonecrosis. As a result of this condition, part of the bone tissue dies due to reduced blood flow to the bones. People may be more likely to develop this
disease:

• if they have been taking combination therapy for a long time
• if they are also taking anti-inflammatory drugs called corticosteroids
• if they drink alcohol
• if their immune system is very weak
• if they are overweight.

Signs of osteonecrosis include:

• joint stiffness
• pain and discomfort in the joints (especially the hip, knee, or shoulder)
• difficulty moving If you notice any of these symptoms: ➔ tell your doctor.

Reporting side effects
If you experience any side effects, including those not listed in this leaflet, tell
