FACTOR IT FORWARD
As part of the IXINITY experience, every IXINITY patient has the opportunity to give back to the US factor IX community just by choosing to infuse. When your healthcare professional enrolls in the program, for every 10 IU of IXINITY distributed, 1 IU is donated to factor IX families in need across the United States. That means a nine who infuses 4000 IU twice a week helps FACTOR IT FORWARD donate more than 40,000 units a year to US factor IX families in need!

Sign the 9
Sign the 9 is another way you can help give back to your community. When you Sign the 9, every signature received will make 9 IU available for donation to people in need across the United States as part of the FACTOR IT FORWARD program for IXINITY.
Already this year, almost 1,000 people have signed the 9! It’s another step we’re all taking to make sure we leave no nine behind.

INDICATIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
What is IXINITY®?
IXINITY [coagulation factor IX (recombinant)] is a medicine used to replace clotting factor (factor IX) that is missing in adults and children at least 12 years of age with hemophilia B. Hemophilia B is also called congenital factor IX deficiency or Christmas disease. Hemophilia B is an inherited bleeding disorder that prevents clotting. Your healthcare provider may give you IXINITY to control and prevent bleeding episodes or when you have surgery.
IXINITY is not indicated for induction of immune tolerance in patients with hemophilia B.
