Remunity
Remunity® Pump for Remodulin
A small, simple subcutaneous pump for patients starting or on a stable dose of Remodulin
Small
Remunity is only 2" in diameter and 3/4" thick. It weighs only 1.7 ounces, making it lighter than most smartphones. It easily fits on your belt or in your pocket, and can be programmed using a separate, small remote.
Remunity also has a water-resistant casing,* so your pump can truly go with you wherever you go.
Simple
Prefilled Remodulin cassettes help ensure you receive your intended dose of medication without the burden of mixing and are delivered to you by your Specialty Pharmacy. You can easily connect the cassette to your pump—just prime, twist, and go. Each cassette can keep you going for up to 3 days (72 hours).
Safe
Remunity’s features prioritize your safety. More than 20 automatic alarms help keep you on top of your pump and your therapy.
*The Remunity pump can tolerate immersion in water to depths of up to 8 feet for 30 minutes and 12 feet for up to 3 minutes. The remote, battery charger, and AC adapter are NOT waterproof and should be kept clean and dry. A patient’s subcutaneous site should be protected. Patients should talk to their healthcare provider before swimming or engaging in water-based activities.

Important Safety Information for Remodulin
Before you take Remodulin, tell your healthcare provider if you:
- Have other medical conditions or take other medicines that may affect your use of Remodulin by increasing the risk of side effects or decreasing the drug’s effectiveness.
- Have liver or kidney problems. Your Remodulin dose may need to be adjusted if you have liver problems.
- Have low blood pressure or bleeding problems.
- Are taking gemfibrozil (for high cholesterol), rifampin (for infection) or other drugs that affect liver enzymes. Your doctor may need to adjust your Remodulin dosage.
- Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant. It is not known if Remodulin will harm your unborn baby or if Remodulin passes into your breast milk.
What are the serious side effects of Remodulin?
- Continuous intravenous (IV) infusions of Remodulin delivered using an external infusion pump, with a tube placed in a central vein within the chest, are associated with the risk of blood stream infections and sepsis, which may be fatal. Therefore, continuous subcutaneous (SC) infusion delivered just beneath the skin is the preferred type of delivery.
- Worsening of PAH symptoms. Do not stop taking or greatly reduce your Remodulin dose without consulting your doctor.
- Low blood pressure (symptomatic hypotension). If you have low blood pressure or are taking drugs that lower your blood pressure, the risk of low blood pressure is increased.
- Bleeding problems. Remodulin may increase the risk of bleeding in people who take blood thinners (anticoagulants).
What are the possible side effects of Remodulin?
- In clinical studies of SC infusion of Remodulin, most people experienced infusion site pain and infusion site reaction (redness, swelling, and rash). These symptoms were sometimes severe and sometimes required treatment with narcotics or discontinuation of Remodulin.
- IV infusion of Remodulin delivered through an external pump has been associated with the risk of blood stream infections, arm swelling, tingling sensations, bruising, and pain.
- The most common side effects seen with either SC or IV Remodulin were headache, diarrhea, nausea, rash, jaw pain, widening of the blood vessels (vasodilatation), and swelling from fluid retention (edema). These are not all the possible side effects of Remodulin. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.
You may report side effects to the FDA at www.fda.gov/MedWatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

What is Remodulin?
Remodulin is a prescription medication used to treat adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; WHO Group 1), which is high blood pressure in the arteries of your lungs. Remodulin can reduce symptoms associated with exercise. Remodulin was studied mainly in patients with NYHA Functional Class II-IV symptoms. It is not known if Remodulin is safe and effective in children.
In people with PAH who need to switch from epoprostenol, Remodulin is approved to slow the worsening of symptoms.
