INFORMATION FOR PATIENTS MuGard Oral Mucoadhesive provides effective management of oral mucositis How does MuGard work? When you use MuGard, it helps you manage your symptoms of oral mucositis. MuGard coats the lining of your mouth with a soothing, protective layer that helps manage the mouth and throat soreness caused by oral mucositis. MuGard has been tested in a clinical trial. In the trial, MuGard reduced the mouth and throat soreness of oral mucositis in patients who were being treated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Indication: MuGard Oral Mucoadhesive is indicated for the management of oral mucositis/stomatitis (that may be caused by radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy) and all types of oral wounds (mouth sores and injuries), including aphthous ulcers/canker sores and traumatic ulcers, such as those caused by oral surgery or ill-fitting dentures or braces. Contraindications: MuGard is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in the formulation. Please see Important Safety Information on page 6 and accompanying full Prescribing Information, also available at MuGard.com. 1

How do I get MuGard Oral Mucoadhesive? MuGard is available by prescription only. You can obtain MuGard in either of the following ways: AMAG Assist will work to provide MuGard directly to your home by mail order or through a specialty pharmacy. You can pick up MuGard at your local pharmacy. A Patient Assistance Program may be available if you don t have commercial insurance coverage. It may also be available if your insurance does not cover MuGard. * MuGard may be provided at no charge to patients who meet financial and other criteria. For more information, call AMAG Assist at 844-635-AMAG (2624) * Restrictions apply. Patients must be at least 18 years of age. They must be residents of the United States. They may not have any private or public health insurance coverage for MuGard. They also must meet income requirements. Medicare patients with no supplemental insurance coverage for MuGard may be eligible. 2

When should I get my MuGard? Talk to your doctor to obtain a prescription for MuGard before your cancer therapy begins. You can start using MuGard as early as the first day of therapy and throughout your course of treatment, or as your doctor directs. Are there any side effects with MuGard? In a clinical trial, no significant side effects were reported in patients taking MuGard. Also, when MuGard is used with other medicines, there are no known interactions. Please see Important Safety Information on page 6 and accompanying full Prescribing Information, also available at MuGard.com. 3

How do I use MuGard Oral Mucoadhesive? MuGard comes ready to use no mixing or diluting is recommended or required. Gently pour 5 ml of MuGard in your mouth. Use the measuring cup included. Be sure to coat your entire mouth with MuGard. You can use up to 10 ml if needed to coat the inside of your mouth fully. Swish MuGard in your mouth for a minute or longer, if you can. You may find that swishing is too difficult or painful. If so, try spreading MuGard throughout your mouth by gently rotating your head. After coating, you can either spit out MuGard or swallow it. Use MuGard 4 to 6 times daily. After using MuGard, wait at least 1 hour before eating or drinking. 4
