Human Normal Immunoglobulin (16.5% w/v)

Overview Gamaglobin 16.5% Injection

Immunoglobulin 16.5% injection bolsters the body's natural defenses, reducing infection risk in immunocompromised individuals. Derived from healthy human plasma rich in protective antibodies, it combats infections effectively. Clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy in preventing infections within the first 100 days post-bone marrow transplant in patients over 20. It's indicated for those with severely compromised antibody production, increasing their susceptibility to illness. This therapy supplies crucial infection-fighting antibodies the body lacks, benefiting both pediatric and adult patients via intravenous administration. Post-injection monitoring by your physician is standard practice to identify any adverse reactions. Potential side effects include injection site reactions (swelling, redness, pain, hardening, itching, bruising, rash), and flushing (warmth in the face, ears, neck, and torso). Report any side effects or discomfort to your doctor; management strategies may be available. Prior to treatment, inform your doctor of any bleeding disorders and recent or planned vaccinations. Safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding remains inconclusive; consult your physician for guidance.
