What To Expect
With PLUVICTO
Treatment
Before you begin PLUVICTO or any other treatment, it’s important to get a sense of what day-to-day life may look like. Learn more about the dosing schedule, what to expect, and how to prepare.
PLUVICTO is given every 6 weeks for up to 6 doses.1* After that, your PLUVICTO treatment is complete. If PLUVICTO is given together with other treatments, you may continue taking them. Talk to your doctor about your treatment plan.
*Dosing may change or stop based on disease progression or unmanageable side effects.1
You will receive PLUVICTO at an approved treatment center.

What targeted radiation with PLUVICTO means for you
PLUVICTO is a targeted therapy with the goal to deliver radiation directly into prostate-specific membrane antigen–positive (PSMA+) cells to destroy them from within.1
After treatment, radiation does not stay in your body for long
Radiation exposure to others is limited and can be compared to taking 3 flights across the United States
Before each dose
Set your expectations
Before you go, ask your treatment center about what to expect on the day of treatment and how long treatment will take. It may take less than 1 hour.6
Get ready for your treatment
Download a playlist, podcast, game, or show to bring with you on the day of treatment and dress comfortably.
Plan your transportation
Keep in mind that you'll need to practice social distancing after treatment and for the following days.1 Learn more.
After each dose
It’s important to know that your sweat, blood, and urine give off radiation after each dose of PLUVICTO.1,7
Minimize radiation exposure to others
By following a few simple precautions in the first few days after treatment, you can reduce radiation exposure to others.1
Keep a safe distance from others after each dose
Distancing does not mean complete isolation. One way you can plan to keep in touch with friends and family is through phone or video calls.
Important reminders and tips after each dose of PLUVICTO
On the way home from treatment:
If taking a car, sit behind an empty passenger seat so that you are safely distanced from the driver9
Avoid using public transportation for more than 1 hour during the first 3 days after treatment. When using it, do your best to follow the 3-feet distancing recommendation4
At home:
Because your body gives off radiation after each dose of PLUVICTO, especially in urine, follow the below practices for at least 2 days afterward to minimize radiation exposure to others.9,10
Remember to drink plenty of water during those 2 days to help with frequent urination, and try to defecate (poop) every day.4
Consider sitting down to urinate to reduce splatter in the restroom4
Flush toilets twice and wash hands thoroughly4
Shower daily for at least the first 7 days after treatment9,10
Do not share towels and washcloths with others9,10
Wash your dishes separately from others1
Wash clothes that contain your sweat, blood, or urine separately from those of others when doing laundry10
Keep your plastic trash bags separate from other trash and away from children and animals10
In public:
You will be given a Discharge Card. Carry it with you throughout treatment, especially during travel or hospital visits. Small amounts of radiation from your body may trigger radiation monitors10
Tell health care providers that you were treated with PLUVICTO if11:
You need medical care during the first 2 weeks after a PLUVICTO dose, as there may still be some radiation in your body
You need to give blood, urine, or stool samples during the first 10 days after a PLUVICTO dose, as the samples might have radiation
Ask your health care team for further advice and share this information with others as needed to help ensure their safety.
