Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Shu Yang IVIG

Summary

To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic properties of Shu Yang intravenous immune globulin in patients with primary immune deficiency aged less than 60 years. The main benefit of IVIG is to help the body fight against a large variety of infections generally associated with morbidity and mortality in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases, particularly in CVID and XLA. In addition, a decrease in the number of infections, a reduction in medications and hospitalizations, and a better quality of life are expected. Throughout treatment, approximately one-fourth of persons may experience a side effect. These are usually mild or bothersome but not dangerous. Very rarely, more serious side effects like allergic reactions or low blood counts (anemia) can occur. One of the most common side effects is headache. Other side effects include chills, fever, flushing, flu-like muscle pains or joint pains, feeling tired, nausea, vomiting, and rash. For the most part, these reactions typically happen with the first dose of IVIG or because change to a different brand of IVIG. All IVIG products have similar warnings and contraindications, such as the potential for renal failure, thrombotic events, aseptic meningitis, hemolysis, and anaphylactic reactions.
