Receive expert immunoglobulin therapy supporting immune protection and long-term health

What Is Immunoglobulin Therapy?

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a type of antibody naturally present in blood plasma and plays a critical role in immune defense. Individuals with primary or secondary immunodeficiency conditions may benefit from immunoglobulin replacement therapy, commonly referred to as IVIg or SCIg. This therapy can be administered intravenously or through subcutaneous injection beneath the skin. Both delivery methods are clinically effective in restoring IgG levels needed to help protect against infection.
