Let’s start at the beginning

What is GAMMAGARD LIQUID?

A therapy for patients with CIDP

GAMMAGARD LIQUID is an established intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) therapy for adults with CIDP. GAMMAGARD LIQUID may help patients manage some CIDP symptoms, such as neuromuscular disability and impairment.

The European Federation of Neurological Societies/Peripheral Nerve Society (EFNS/PNS) guidelines strongly recommend IVIG as a treatment option for CIDP.

How does GAMMAGARD LIQUID help treat CIDP?

GAMMAGARD LIQUID is a ready-to-use liquid medicine that contains immune globulin (IG). People with CIDP have a rare autoimmune disease that causes your immune system to attack your nerves, leading to muscle weakness and numbness. IG is thought to reduce the damage to the nerves and assist in defending nerves from harm.
