Side-effects of intravenous immune globulins

C Duhem et al. Clin Exp Immunol. 1994 Jul.

Abstract

Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) preparations are efficacious and safe products in use world-wide. Although rare, side-effects of IVIG may be serious, even life-threatening, and clinicians should be aware of their potential occurrence. This article summarizes most of the adverse experiences with IVIG reported in the literature since its introduction into clinical practice almost 15 years ago.
