What is TPOXX?

TPOXX is an FDA-approved (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) medication manufactured by SIGA Technologies Inc. TPOXX was developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).

TPOXX is an antiviral drug with activity against orthopoxviruses such as smallpox and the monkeypox virus. However, its use for monkeypox is not approved by the FDA. Therefore, the CDC holds a protocol that allows for the use of tecovirimat for the treatment of non-variola orthopoxvirus infections, including monkeypox, in adults and children of all ages.

TPOXX is an inhibitor of the orthopoxvirus protein and is used for the treatment of human smallpox disease in adults and pediatric patients weighing at least 3 kg. The effectiveness of TPOXX may be reduced in immunocompromised patients based on animal studies showing reduced effectiveness in immunocompromised animal models.

What doses of TPOXX are available?

TPOXX is available as a capsule and injection formulation, in the following doses: 200 mg, and a single-dose vial containing 200 mg in 20 mL.

Always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

TPOXX active ingredients

TPOXX contains tecovirimat as the active ingredient. TPOXX prevents the spread of the variola virus by blocking the production of a secondary viral envelope. Without this envelope, viral particles remain inside the cell in which they were made and cannot spread to and infect other cells.

TPOXX side effects

The most common side effects of TPOXX in clinical trials compared to placebo include:

  • Headache
  • Nausea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Vomiting
  • Administration site reactions

In rare instances, TPOXX can cause more serious adverse effects. These can include:

  • Hypoglycemia

Your doctor will assess the benefits of using TPOXX against your risk of adverse events. Patients are encouraged to report negative side effects or adverse reactions of TPOXX to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

TPOXX drug interactions

TPOXX can interact with other medications. These include:

  • Significant interactions in healthy adults with co-administration of repaglinide and midazolam

This list is not exhaustive and other prescription drugs may interact with TPOXX.
