It is also used together with other medications given during and after general anesthesia. Vistaril is also used to treat allergic skin reactions such as hives or contact dermatitis.

Treatment of pernicious anemia and other vitamin B12 deficiency states. Parenteral cyanocobalamin or hydroxocobalamin: Treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency due to inadequate intrinsic factor (IF) secretion; impaired intestinal absorption; or dietary deficiency associated with a vegetarian diet. Cyanocobalamin is considered the parenteral vitamin B12 preparation of choice; hydroxocobalamin may be preferred for initial treatment. Cyanocobalamin nasal spray: Used to maintain hematologic status in adults with pernicious anemia with no nervous system involvement who have responded to parenteral vitamin B 12 therapy. Also used as a supplement for vitamin B12 deficiency due to dietary deficiency, impaired absorption, inadequate secretion of IF, or certain other conditions. Adequate intake needed to prevent vitamin B12 deficiency and neurologic complications associated with vitamin B12 deficiency. Adequate intake of vitamin B12 usually can be accomplished through consumption of foodstuffs; however, about 10–30% of geriatric individuals are unable to absorb naturally occurring vitamin B12 and should consume vitamin B12-fortified food or supplements. Inadequate intake can occur in vegetarians and their breast-fed infants. Mixed foods whose main ingredient is meat, fish, or poultry; milk; and fortified ready-to-eat cereals are the main sources of vitamin B12 in the diet of US adults and children. Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) in adults based on amount needed to maintain hematologic status and normal serum vitamin B12 concentrations. Adequate intake (AI) established for infants ≤6 months of age based on observed mean vitamin B12 intake of infants fed principally human milk; AI for infants 7–12 months of age based on AI for younger infants and data in adults. RDA for children 1–18 years of age based on data in adults. Parenteral cyanocobalamin: Management of hereditary deficiency of transcobalamin II. Parenteral cyanocobalamin and hydroxocobalamin: Used in conjunction with cyanocobalamin Co 57 in Schilling test to study vitamin B12 absorption. Hydroxocobalamin (Cyanokit): Treatment of known or suspected cyanide poisoning. Used in conjunction with airway and cardiovascular support and management of seizure activity.

Ascorbic acid is used to treat and prevent vitamin C deficiency. Ascorbic acid is also used in supporting antioxidant activity and the immune system to work properly to protect the body from disease. Ascorbic acid may also be used for purposes not listed in this product guide.

Vitamin D has to be one of science’s most misunderstood vitamins. For a start, it is not actually a vitamin, but a prohormone, which means that it is converted into a hormone by our body. It is also not just one substance, but five different substances, of which two have been identified as being the most important to humans. These are: In addition, research has discovered that vitamin D is not only vital for calcium absorption and bone growth and remodeling, but several other important processes as well, such as modulating cell growth and immune system function. Vitamin D acts on our bones, intestines, kidneys and parathyroid glands to keep calcium in balance throughout our body. Vitamin D receptors are also located within our cardiovascular system, lungs, pancreas, skeletal muscle, skin, and reproductive organs. In summary, vitamin D is a prohormone that is essential for good health. Only 10% of the vitamin D our body needs is obtained from food. The rest is made by our bodies when our skin is exposed to sunlight.

Cholecalciferol is vitamin D3. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Vitamin D is also essential for maintaining a healthy immune system. The function of the immune system is to prevent or limit infection. Cholecalciferol is used as a dietary supplement in people who do not get enough vitamin D in their diets to maintain adequate health. Cholecalciferol may also be used for purposes not listed in this guide.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that occurs naturally in foods such as vegetable oils, wheat germ oil, cereals, meat, poultry, eggs, fruits, and vegetables. Vitamin E is also known as All Rac-Alpha-Tocopherol, D-Alpha Tocopheryl Succinate, D-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate, and other names. Vitamin E is likely effective in alternative medicine as an aid in treating a condition that affects movement and motor control (ataxia with vitamin E deficiency) caused by very low vitamin E levels in the blood and to treat and prevent vitamin E deficiency. Vitamin E has been used in alternative medicine as a possibly effective aid in treating Alzheimer disease, beta-thalassemia, menstrual pain, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, nitrate tolerance, premenstrual syndrome, reducing the risk for bleeding into the brain or inside the skull, and improving symptoms in people with a movement disorder (tardive dyskinesia). Vitamin E has also been used to treat or prevent macular degeneration (age-related vision loss), a nerve-muscle disorder (ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease), hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis), atopic dermatitis (eczema), cataracts, high blood pressure, liver disease, parkinson's disease, pre-eclampsia, scarring caused by surgery, and pain or stiffness caused by osteoarthritis. However, research has shown that vitamin E may not be effective in treating these conditions. Other uses not proven with research have included asthma, dementia, depression, diabetes, Down syndrome, infertility, inflammatory bowel disease, menopausal symptoms, muscular dystrophy, obesity, osteoporosis, low bone mineral density (osteopenia), restless legs syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, schizophrenia, stroke, sunburn, and uveitis. It is not certain whether vitamin E is effective in treating any medical condition. Medicinal use of this product has not been approved by the FDA. Vitamin E should not be used in place of medication prescribed for you by your doctor. Vitamin E is often sold as an herbal supplement. There are no regulated manufacturing standards in place for many herbal compounds and some marketed supplements have been found to be contaminated with toxic metals or other drugs. Herbal/health supplements should be purchased from a reliable source to minimize the risk of contamination.

Vivitrol is a long-acting injectable form of naltrexone, which is a medication used to treat two substance use disorders - opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder (alcoholism). Vivitrol is used as part of a treatment program. It helps prevent people with alcohol or opioid dependence from feeling like they need to use these substances. Vivitrol is an opioid antagonist, which works by blocking mu opioid receptors. It also suppresses the amount of alcohol you feel like drinking by changing how your hypothalamus, pituitary gland and adrenal gland work together. Vivitrol blocks the intoxication and euphoria or 'high' that alcohol and opioids cause. It also blocks the pain relief that opioids provide. Vivitrol is an extended-release suspension that is injected into your gluteal muscle. Once injected, it slowly releases naltrexone (the active ingredient) for about a month. Vivitrol was first approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2006.

Voltaren is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Diclofenac works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Voltaren oral tablets are used to treat mild to moderate pain, or signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Voltaren is also used to treat ankylosing spondylitis. Voltaren ophthalmic eyedrops are used to treat pain, inflammation, and light sensitivity after eye surgery or for certain eye conditions. Voltaren gel is used to treat osteoarthritis of the knees and hands.

Voltaren Arthritis Pain gel contains diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Diclofenac works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Voltaren Arthritis Pain gel may not be effective in treating arthritis pain elsewhere in the body.

Vonjo (pacritinib) capsules are used to treat types of myelofibrosis with low platelet counts (cytopenic myelofibrosis) to help reduce spleen volume.  Vonjo is a kinase inhibitor that works by blocking certain types of enzymes called Janus associated kinase 2 (JAK2) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) without blocking JAK1.  Vonjo received FDA approval on February 28, 2022, for adults with intermediate or high-risk primary or secondary (post-polycythemia vera or post-essential thrombocythemia) myelofibrosis with a platelet count below 50 × 109 /L. Vonjo received accelerated approval for this indication based on spleen volume reduction, and continued approval for this indication will depend on positive results in future trial results. In the clinical trial, PERSIST-2,  29% of patients had a reduction in spleen volume of at least 35% compared to 3% of patients receiving the best available therapy, which included ruxolitinib. Patients had myelofibrosis with platelet counts less than or equal to 100 × 109/L and took Vonjo 200mg twice daily for 24 weeks.

Voquezna (vonoprazan) is an oral potassium-competitive acid blocker that reduces the amount of acid in your stomach and may be used in adults: Voquezna's mechanism of action is to inhibit the potassium-dependant component of the acid-proton pump within cells in the gastric glands lining the stomach (these are called parietal cells) whose function is to secrete hydrochloride acid. Voquezna blocks the final step of acid production and reduces both baseline and stimulated gastric acid secretion. It does not require acid to activate it. Voquezna works like a proton pump inhibitor (PPIs) but blocks a different part of the proton pump and is called a potassium-competitive acid blocker (PCAB). Voquezna was first FDA approved on May 3, 2022 as Voquezna Triple and Dual Pak. It was FDA-approved as a stand-alone tablet on November 1, 2023.

Voriconazole tablets are indicated in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis (IA). In clinical trials, the majority of isolates recovered were Aspergillus fumigatus. There was a small number of cases of culture-proven disease due to species of Aspergillus other than A. fumigatus [see Clinical Studies (14.1, 14.5) and Microbiology (12.4)]. Voriconazole tablets are indicated in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) for the treatment of candidemia in non-neutropenic patients and the following Candida infections: disseminated infections in skin and infections in abdomen, kidney, bladder wall, and wounds [see Clinical Studies (14.2, 14.5) and Microbiology (12.4)]. Voriconazole tablets are indicated in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) for the treatment of esophageal candidiasis (EC) in adults and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older [see Clinical Studies (14.3, 14.5) and Microbiology (12.4)]. Voriconazole tablets are indicated for the treatment of serious fungal infections caused by Scedosporium apiospermum (asexual form of Pseudallescheria boydii) and Fusarium spp. including Fusarium solani, in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) intolerant of, or refractory to, other therapy [see Clinical Studies (14.4) and Microbiology (12.4)]. Specimens for fungal culture and other relevant laboratory studies (including histopathology) should be obtained prior to therapy to isolate and identify causative organism(s). Therapy may be instituted before the results of the cultures and other laboratory studies are known. However, once these results become available, antifungal therapy should be adjusted accordingly.

Vortioxetine (Trintellix) is an antidepressant used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. Vortioxetine is thought to work by increasing levels of serotonin in the brain, serotonin is a neurotransmitter.  Vortioxetine's mechanism of action (MOA) is thought to be related to the inhibition of the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT), it has other activities, including 5-HT3 receptor antagonism and 5-HT1A receptor agonism, but it is unclear whether these have an antidepressant effect. Vortioxetine is classified as a miscellaneous antidepressant, although some class vortioxetine it as a SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) or a serotonin modulator. Vortioxetine originally became an FDA-approved medicine on September 30, 2013, under the brand name Brintellix. In May 2016, Takeda Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc. and Lundbeck announced that Brintellix would be marketed in the United States under the new name Trintellix effective June 2016. The change comes after receiving reports of name confusion in the marketplace between Brintellix and the anti-blood-clotting therapy Brilinta (ticagrelor).

Vosevi treats specific genotypes of hepatitis C, and only in certain people. Use only the medications prescribed for you. Do not share your medicine with other people. Vosevi is sometimes used in people who also have HIV. This medicine is not a treatment for HIV or AIDS.

Votrient is a cancer medicine that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body. Pazopanib is a cancer medicine that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body. Votrient is used to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer). Votrient is also used to treat soft tissue sarcoma (a tumor that can develop in or around muscles, tendons, joints, organs, or blood vessels). Votrient is usually given after other cancer medications have been tried without successful treatment of soft tissue sarcoma.

Voydeya (danicopan) is an oral complement factor D inhibitor that may be used to treat extravascular hemolysis (EVH) in adults with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) as add-on therapy to ravulizumab (Ultomiris) or eculizumab (Soliris) when patients have had an insufficient response to these treatments. Voydeya addresses the needs of 10-20% of patients with PNH who experience clinically significant EVH despite treatment with a C5 inhibitor. EVH involves the destruction of red blood cells outside of the blood vessels. Voydeya (danicopan) works by specifically binding to complement Factor D (part of the immune system) which plays a key role in the formation of the alternative pathway, which can result in an over responsive complement system and the body attacking its own cells. It prevents its cleavage into Ba and Bb fragments that are required for the formation of an enzyme involved in EVH. Co-administered ravulizumab or eculizumab helps maintain control over membrane attack complex (MAC)-mediated intravascular hemolysis (IVH) – which is the destruction of red blood cells inside the blood vessels. Voydeya was FDA approved on 29 March 2024.

Vraylar (cariprazine) is used to treat types of bipolar I disorder, major depressive disorder (MDD), and schizophrenia. Vraylar works to improve depression symptoms in bipolar depression and major depressive disorder and to improve psychiatric signs and symptoms in schizophrenia. Vraylar capsules are taken once a day.  Vraylar is thought to work by managing serotonin and dopamine levels, which are chemical messengers in the brain. Vraylar is thought to have this effect (mechanism of action) by having a combination of partial agonist activity at central dopamine D₂ and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors and antagonist activity at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. Vraylar is from the drug class of medications called atypical antipsychotics. Vraylar originally became an FDA-approved medicine on September 17, 2015. Vraylar has FDA approval to treat adults with: 

Vyepti (eptinezumab-jjmr) is used to prevent migraines and is given as an IV infusion every 3 months (four times a year). Vyepti infusion helps reduce monthly migraine days for chronic migraines and episodic migraines in adults so that you may have more migraine-free days.  Vyepti infusion works by blocking a protein called calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which is involved in migraines. CGRP levels increase during a migraine attack and may also be involved in the start of a migraine. It is thought that by blocking CGRP, Vyepti reduces monthly migraine days. Vyetpi infusion received FDA approval on February 22, 2020.

Vyndamax is a transthyretin stabilizer that may be given to reduce death or hospitalization caused by heart problems in adults with cardiomyopathy (damage of the heart muscle) caused by wild-type or hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM). Vyndamax works by attaching to the transthyretin protein, which is an important protein primarily produced by the liver, but also in small amounts by the outer lining of the brain and retina. TTR carries the thyroid hormone thyroxine and retinol (vitamin A) throughout the body. Vyndamax stabilizes TTR, helping it to stay together, and slowing the breakdown and build-up of dangerous deposits, which can help slow the progression of ATTR-CM. Vyndamax was FDA approved on May 3, 2019. The difference between Vyndamax and Vyndaqel is their form of tafamidis. Vyndaqel has the micronized meglumine salt, while Vyndamax has the free acid form. Vyndamax is designed for convenience, with one capsule taken daily, while Vyndaqel requires four capsules daily. No generic versions are available for either.

Vyvanse is a central nervous system stimulant. It affects chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control. Vyvanse is FDA-approved to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults and in children who are at least 6 years old. Vyvanse is also used to treat moderate to severe binge eating disorder in adults. This medicine is not to be used for obesity or weight loss.

Wainua (eplontersen) is used to treat polyneuropathy of hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR-PN or ATTRv-PN), which is a rare, progressive disease that can be fatal if not treated. Amyloidosis is a disease caused by a buildup of abnormal proteins called amyloid.  Wainua is from a class of medications called LICA (ligand-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide). Wainua works by decreasing the amount of TTR protein that is made, which slows disease progression and improves neuropathy and the patient's quality of life. Wainua is given as a monthly self-administered subcutaneous injection, using an autoinjector. Wainua received FDA approval on December 21, 2023, after positive results from the phase III clinical trial NEURO-TTRansform (NCT04136184).

Wakix tablets are used to treat excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) or cataplexy (sudden loss of muscle strength) both are symptoms of narcolepsy, which is a long-term sleep disorder. Wakix is thought to work by increasing the amount of histamine in the area of the brain that controls sleep and wakefulness, as it acts on the histamine-3 (H3) receptor. Narcolepsy is a disorder that affects how well the brain controls sleep-wake cycles. Often, people with narcolepsy have interrupted sleep and may feel very sleepy during the day, which interferes with their lives. Everyone who has narcolepsy has excessive daytime sleepiness, which is when they have an overwhelming sense of sleepiness that comes on quickly. Cataplexy is when you have a sudden loss of muscle tone while you are awake, which leads to muscle weakness and loss of muscle control. Cataplexy can be mild and only last a short time, or it can be severe with a full-body collapse. Wakix is a prescription medicine that is FDA-approved to treat:  Wakix is not a controlled substance. Wakix is not a stimulant medicine.

Wegovy injection is used for weight loss and to lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and cardiovascular death in specific people. Wegovy works by regulating appetite and reducing calorie intake, leading to weight loss, helping with weight management and lowering the risk of heart attacks, strokes and cardiovascular death. Wegovy is a prescription medicine given as an injection once-a-week given under the skin. Wegovy (semaglutide) belongs to the class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists. GLP-1 receptor agonists are a manufactured version of GLP-1, a naturally occurring hormone in the body that acts in several areas in the brain to regulate food intake. When Wegovy is administered, it activates the GLP-1 receptors in the brain. This lowers appetite, reducing the calories consumed and leading to weight loss.  This medicine should be used together with a decreased-calorie meal plan and increased physical activity to help weight management. Wegovy contains semaglutide, which is the same active ingredient in Ozempic and Rybelsus, therefore these products should not be used together. Ozempic (subcutaneous weekly injection) and Rybelsus (once-a-day tablet) are used to lower blood sugar levels for type two diabetic patients. Ozempic is also used to lower the risk of major cardiovascular events for some type 2 diabetic patients.
