FDA Black Box Warning

WARNING: THROMBOSIS, RENAL DYSFUNCTION, AND ACUTE RENAL FAILURE Thrombosis may occur with immune globulin products, including QIVIGY. Risk factors may include: advanced age, prolonged immobilization, hypercoagulable conditions, history of venous or arterial thrombosis, use of estrogens, indwelling central vascular catheters, hyperviscosity, and cardiovascular risk factors. Thrombosis may occur in the absence of known risk factors [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . Renal dysfunction, acute renal failure, osmotic nephrosis may occur with immune globulin intravenous (IGIV) products in predisposed patients. Such events require immediate medical intervention, if not recognized or managed appropriately, may result in persistent or significant disability or incapacity or lead to fatal outcome. Patients predisposed to renal dysfunction include those with any degree of pre-existing renal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, age greater than 65, volume depletion, sepsis, paraproteinemia, or patients receiving known nephrotoxic drugs [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . For patients at risk of thrombosis, renal dysfunction or failure, administer QIVIGY at the minimum dose available and the minimum infusion rate practicable. Ensure adequate hydration in patients before administration. Monitor for signs and symptoms of thrombosis and assess blood viscosity in patients at risk for hyperviscosity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3) ] .

Contraindications

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS QIVIGY is contraindicated in patients who have had an anaphylactic or severe systemic reaction to the administration of human immune globulin. QIVIGY is contraindicated in IgA deficient patients with antibodies against IgA and history of hypersensitivity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . Patients with history of anaphylactic or severe systemic reactions to human immune globulins. ( 4 ) IgA deficient patients with antibodies against IgA and a history of hypersensitivity. ( 4 )

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary No human data are available to indicate the presence or absence of drug-associated risk. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with QIVIGY. It is not known whether QIVIGY can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Immune globulins cross the placenta from maternal circulation. QIVIGY should be given to pregnant women only if clearly needed. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defect and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 - 4% and 15 - 20%, respectively.
