IViG
IViG: Boost Immune System Response
Our specialized in-home IViG (intravenous immune globulin) therapy is carefully prepared to provide essential IG antibodies for those with weakened immune systems or other diseases to fight off infections.
Who Can Benefit?
Suitable for children and adults dealing with autoimmune ailments or immune deficiency disorders, our therapy provides the antibodies needed to stay healthy.
Some of the potential benefits of IVIG therapy include:
- Immune System Modulation: IVIG can be used to either suppress an overactive immune system or boost a weakened immune system, depending on the specific condition being treated.
- Autoimmune Diseases: IVIG therapy is often used to treat conditions such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, myasthenia gravis, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can benefit from IVIG by helping to reduce autoantibody levels and dampen immune responses that contribute to tissue damage.
- Immunodeficiency Disorders: IVIG therapy can help prevent infections and improve the overall immune defense for individuals with primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs).
- Inflammatory Conditions: Conditions involving chronic inflammation, such as Kawasaki disease and certain types of vasculitis, may be treated with IVIG to help reduce inflammation and prevent further tissue damage.
- Replacement therapy: Low-dose IVIg can replace missing antibodies in people who have health conditions that lower their antibody levels and provide protection against a range of infections.
