WARNING: HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS
Patients who carry the HLA-B*5701 allele are at a higher risk of a hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir; although, hypersensitivity reactions have occurred in patients who do not carry the HLA-B*5701 allele [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. ZIAGEN is contraindicated in patients with a prior hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir and in HLA-B*5701-positive patients [see Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. All patients should be screened for the HLA-B*5701 allele prior to initiating therapy with ZIAGEN or reinitiation of therapy with ZIAGEN, unless patients have a previously documented HLA-B*5701 allele assessment. Discontinue ZIAGEN immediately if a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected, regardless of HLA-B*5701 status and even when other diagnoses are possible [see Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. 
 
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
2.1 Screening for HLA-B*5701 Allele prior to Starting ZIAGEN Screen for the HLA-B*5701 allele prior to initiating therapy with ZIAGEN [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
 

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS
ZIAGEN is contraindicated in patients: a who have the HLA-B*5701 allele [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
 
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
5.1 Hypersensitivity Reaction

Patients who carry the HLA-B*5701 allele are at a higher risk of abacavir hypersensitivity reactions; although, patients who do not carry the HLA-B*5701 allele have developed hypersensitivity reactions. Hypersensitivity to abacavir was reported in approximately 206 (8%) of 2,670 patients in 9 clinical trials with abacavir-containing products where HLA-B*5701 screening was not performed. The incidence of suspected abacavir hypersensitivity reactions in clinical trials was 1% when subjects carrying the HLA-B*5701 allele were excluded.
Due to the potential for severe, serious, and possibly fatal hypersensitivity reactions with ZIAGEN:
 - All patients should be screened for the HLA-B*5701 allele prior to initiating therapy with ZIAGEN or reinitiation of therapy with ZIAGEN, unless patients have a previously documented HLA-B*5701 allele assessment.
 - ZIAGEN is contraindicated in patients with a prior hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir and in HLA-B*5701-positive patients.
 
17 MEDICATION GUIDE
 - What is the most important information I should know about ZIAGEN?
ZIAGEN can cause serious side effects, including: Serious allergic reactions (hypersensitivity reaction) on) that can cause death have happened with ZIAGEN and other abacavir-containing products. Your risk of this allergic reaction is much higher if you have a gene variation called HLA-B*5701. Your healthcare provider can determine with a blood test if you have this gene variation.
 - Who should not take ZIAGEN?
Do not take ZIAGEN if you: have a certain type of gene variation called the HLA-B*5701 allele. Your healthcare provider will test you for this before prescribing treatment with ZIAGEN.
 - What should I tell my healthcare provider before taking ZIAGEN?
Before you take ZIAGEN, tell your healthcare provider if you: have been tested and know whether or not you have a particular gene variation called HLA-B*5701.
