†Please see Patient Information. Follow appropriate administration steps in the Instructions for Use. Monitor for signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction for at least 30 minutes after injection. If an allergic reaction occurs, you should seek medical attention.
You can self-inject, or a caregiver can do it for you. You can still get your injection from a healthcare professional.
You and/or your caregiver will receive in-person training at home or in your doctor’s office until you’re ready to inject on your own. You’ll also get a demonstration kit to help you practice.
As you prep for your next doctor’s visit, use this chart to help learn about the different ways CIDP treatments can be given. This is an educational tool, not a comparison of effectiveness or safety for these treatments.
