What Jascayd is

Jascayd (nerandomilast) is a tablet made by Boehringer Ingelheim. It is a phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) inhibitor. The FDA approved it on 7 October 2025 for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in adults, and in December 2025 for progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) in adults. The pivotal trial for PPF was FIBRONEER-ILD.

Pulmonary fibrosis is scarring of the lungs that makes breathing harder over time. Jascayd is a long-term treatment that a lung specialist starts and follows up.

How it is given and safety

The usual dose is 18 mg by mouth twice daily, about 12 hours apart, with or without food. The tablet can be swallowed whole or dispersed in water. The dose is lowered to 9 mg twice daily for people who cannot tolerate 18 mg (but not for people also taking pirfenidone, who stay on 18 mg) and for people taking strong CYP3A inhibitors. Tablets come in 9 mg and 18 mg strengths.

The US label lists no contraindications. Common side effects reported by Boehringer Ingelheim include diarrhea, COVID-19, upper respiratory infections, depression, weight loss, decreased appetite, nausea, tiredness, headache, vomiting, back pain and dizziness. Diarrhea was more frequent in people also taking nintedanib, and it was the most common reason to stop treatment.

How access works in Qatar

In Qatar, the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH), through its Department of Pharmacy and Drug Control, supervises the registration and importation of medicines.

For a medicine that is not registered in Qatar, the treating hospital asks MoPH for approval to import it for the patient. Your hospital pharmacy prepares the request and confirms the current MoPH procedure.

Ask the hospital pharmacy to confirm the current status with MoPH's Department of Pharmacy and Drug Control before anything is filed.

Who does what

Your treating specialist decides whether Jascayd is right for the patient and writes the clinical letter and prescription.
The hospital files the import request, receives the medicine and dispenses it to the patient.
The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) registers medicines and decides on any import request for a medicine that is not registered.
Boehringer Ingelheim makes Jascayd and decides where it is supplied.
Reserve Meds helps your family understand the steps, organizes records and communication, and, where an import is approved, arranges US supply through our licensed wholesale partner. We do not give medical advice.
