How seladelpar lysine is dosed
From the FDA label for Livdelzi (application NDA217899). Other seladelpar lysine products — different forms, different strengths — are dosed differently. Follow the label for the one you were prescribed.
The recommended dosage of LIVDELZI is 10 mg orally once daily. Administer LIVDELZI with or without food. ( 2.1 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage and Administration The recommended dosage of LIVDELZI is 10 mg orally once daily. Administer LIVDELZI with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . 2.2 Administration Modification for Bile Acid Sequestrants Administer LIVDELZI at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking bile acid sequestrants, or at as great an interval as possible [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] .
Seladelpar Lysine side effects
The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: Fractures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Liver Test Abnormalities [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥5% and higher compared to placebo) are headache, abdominal pain, nausea, abdominal distension, and dizziness. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Gilead Sciences, Inc. at 1-800-GILEAD-5 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trial Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. In Trial 1, 193 patients were randomized to receive either LIVDELZI 10 mg (N=128) or placebo (N=65) once daily for 12 months [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . LIVDELZI or placebo was administered in combination with UDCA in 94% of patients and as monotherapy in 6% of patients who were unable to tolerate UDCA. Common Adverse Reactions Table 1 presents common adverse reactions that occurred in Trial 1. Table 1: Common Adverse Reactions Occurring Through Week 52 in Adult Patients with PBC (Trial 1) Included 12 patients (6%) who were intolerant to UDCA and initiated treatment as monotherapy: 8 patients…

Seladelpar Lysine drug interactions
Probenecid : Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 ) Strong CYP2C9 Inhibitors : Monitor for adverse effects. ( 7.1 ) Dual Moderate CYP2C9 and Moderate to Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors : Monitor for adverse effects. ( 7.1 ) CYP2C9 Poor Metabolizers using Moderate to Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors : Monitor for adverse effects. ( 7.1 ) Dual or Multiple Clinical Inhibitors of Drug Transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and BCRP : Monitor for adverse effects. ( 7.1 ) Rifampin : Monitor biochemical response (e.g., ALP and bilirubin) when patients initiate rifampin. ( 7.1 ) Bile Acid Sequestrants : Administer at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking a bile acid sequestrant, or at as great an interval as possible. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on LIVDELZI Table 2 includes clinically significant drug interactions affecting LIVDELZI. Table 2: Clinically Significant Interactions Affecting LIVDELZI Concomitant Drug or Class Potential Effect on Seladelpar Exposure ↑ = Increase, ↓ = Decrease. Clinical Intervention Probenecid ↑ seladelpar Avoid concomitant administration of LIVDELZI with probenecid. Strong CYP2C9 Inhibitors ↑ seladelpar Monitor patients for adverse effects during concomitant use of LIVDELZI with strong CYP2C9 inhibitors. Dual Moderate CYP2C9 and Moderate or Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors (e.g., fluconazole) ↑ seladelpar Monitor patients for adverse effects during concomitant use of LIVDELZI with drugs that are dual moderate CYP2C9 and moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. CYP2C9 Poor Metabolizers Using Moderate or Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors ↑ seladelpar Monitor patients who are CYP2C9 poor metabolizers for adverse effects during concomitant use of LIVDELZI with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitor. Dual or Multiple Clinical Inhibitors of Drug Transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and BCRP (e.g, cyclosporine) ↑ seladelpar Monitor patients for adverse effects during concomitant use of LIVDELZI with dual or multiple clinical inhibitors of drug transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and BCRP. Rifampin ↓ seladelpar Concomitant use of LIVDELZI with rifampin, an inducer of metabolizing enzymes, may result in delayed or suboptimal LIVDELZI biochemical response. Monitor the biochemical response (e.g., ALP and bilirubin) when patients initiate rifampin during LIVDELZI treatment. Bile Acid Sequestrants ↓ seladelpar Bile acid sequestrants may interfere with the action of LIVDELZI by reducing its absorption and systemic exposure, which may reduce LIVDELZI efficacy. Administer LIVDELZI at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking a bile acid sequestrant, or at as great an interval as possible [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] .

What people report to the FDA about seladelpar lysine
The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) collects reports from patients and clinicians. It holds 2 reports naming seladelpar lysine, and the FDA flagged 50% of those reports as serious. The effects reported most often — leaving out reports about overdose, misuse or the condition being treated, which dominate the raw list for common medicines:
- dizziness1 reports
- transaminases increased1 reports
Read these as a signal, not a rate. A report does not mean seladelpar lysine caused the effect — anyone can file one, and many describe people taking several medicines for several conditions. Crucially there is no denominator: FAERS does not record how many people took the drug, so these counts cannot be turned into “X% of patients” — a bigger number often just means a more widely used or more talked-about drug. Duplicates exist, and publicity drives reporting. For what is actually established, read the FDA label section above.

Frequently asked questions
What is seladelpar lysine?
LIVDELZI capsules contain seladelpar lysine, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-delta (δ) agonist. Seladelpar is a single enantiomer of the R-configuration and is present as a lysine dihydrate salt.
Can you take seladelpar lysine with other medicines?
It depends on the medicine. We check it against the FDA labels rather than guessing: our interaction checker searches each drug's own label for the other and quotes what it says, naming the section it came from. Run seladelpar lysine against whatever else you take — and remember that a label not naming a drug is not the same as that combination being safe.
What forms does seladelpar lysine come in?
Across the brands we track, seladelpar lysine is currently marketed as capsule, per the FDA's National Drug Code Directory. Each form is dosed differently — follow the label for the exact product you were prescribed.
Is there a generic seladelpar lysine?
We do not currently list a generic-labelled seladelpar lysine product. That does not always mean none exists — it means none appears under a generic name in the FDA data we track. Ask your pharmacist.
