ATGAM®Patient Counseling Information (lymphocyte immune globulin, anti-thymocyte globulin [equine])

17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION

Advise patients receiving ATGAM that they will be monitored in a facility equipped and staffed with adequate laboratory and supportive medical resources.

Inform patients that ATGAM may cause serious allergic reactions, infection or abnormal liver or renal function.

Serious Allergic Reactions

  • Advise the patient to discontinue ATGAM and seek immediate medical attention if any signs/symptoms of an allergic or immune reaction occur [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
