panzyga® - Human Intravenous Immunoglobulin

What is panzyga®?

panzyga® is a high purity 10% human normal intravenous immunoglobulin solution (IVIg) derived from donated human plasma.1 While panzyga® uses glycine as a stabilizer, its precisely developed formulation and resulting product profile allows for rapid infusion rates without compromising tolerability.1-5 Although the mechanism of action of panzyga® in each specific indication is not fully elucidated, adequate doses of IVIg have been clinically shown to:

Restore abnormally low IgG levels in patients affected by primary and secondary immunodeficiencies.

Exert anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities in autoimmune or neurological disorders.

panzyga® indications

panzyga® is approved for use across a range of clinical indications, providing proven clinical evidence, experience and confidence to support healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers.

panzyga® is indicated for both replacement therapy in patients with primary and secondary immunodeficiencies (PID, SID) and for immunomodulation in specific autoimmune and neurological disorders.1

Easy, convenient and reliable.

The colour coding of panzyga® vials, together with their variety of presentations and storage at room temperature, ensures practical, convenient and reliable administration.
