Pharmacology
Immune globulin (IgG) replacement product in which the Immune Globulin Infusion (Human), 10% supplies broad-spectrum opsonizing and neutralizing IgG antibodies against bacterial and viral agents, while rHuPH20 transiently depolymerizes subcutaneous hyaluronan to increase tissue permeability, facilitating dispersion and absorption of the full IgG dose administered subcutaneously.
GAMMAKED is an immune globulin that supplies a broad spectrum of opsonic and neutralizing IgG antibodies against bacterial, viral, parasitic, and mycoplasmal agents and their toxins; the precise mechanism of action in ITP and CIDP has not been fully elucidated.
