Safety profile of VYNDAQEL​​​​​VYNDAQEL was generally well tolerated in the ATTR-ACT trial1

Safety data are based on 176 patients with ATTR-CM treated with 80 mg tafamidis meglumine
daily (4 x 20 mg) in a 30-month placebo-controlled trial2


Frequency of AEs was generally similar to placebo2

The following adverse events were reported more often in patients treated with tafamidis
meglumine 80 mg compared to placebo:2

  • Flatulence; 8 patients vs 3 patients (4.5% vs. 1.7%)
  • Liver function test increased; 6 patients vs 2 patients (3.4% vs. 1.1%)

A causal relationship has not been established.
 

From cumulative clinical data in ATTR-CM participants:2

Common AEs (occurring in ≥1% to <10% of patients) include diarrhoea, rash and pruritus

VYNDAQEL 61 mg (tafamidis) corresponds to 80 mg tafamidis meglumine. Tafamidis and tafamidis meglumine are not interchangeable on a per mg basis.2
