Tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:

- are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. Do not breastfeed during treatment with WAYRILZ and for at least 1 week after the last dose.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over‑the‑counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
