HAEGARDA BRINGS ON STEADY C1-INH LEVELS IN APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS

With HAEGARDA, you know you’re giving your body more of what it needs to keep C1-INH levels steady. HAEGARDA brings your working C1-INH levels back up and closer to normal in 3 to 4 doses, or about 2 weeks.

HAEGARDA starts raising your C1-INH levels right away, after your first dose:

It may take 3 to 4 doses of HAEGARDA (or a couple of weeks) for your C1-INH levels to stabilize
While your levels are being stabilized, it is important to work with your doctor
Always be prepared with on-demand rescue therapy in case of any breakthrough attacks

Studies have not been conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of C1-INH in specific patient populations stratified by gender, race, or the presence of renal or hepatic impairment.

You can rotate where you self-administer in your abdomen, or another site for the injection as discussed with your doctor.

Continue to take HAEGARDA

You should continue to take HAEGARDA as prescribed to prevent HAE attacks, even if you haven’t had an attack in a while.

Keep it consistent

Because it’s a subcutaneous injection, HAEGARDA when used as directed keeps the level of C1‑INH steady and effective between doses. Stick with it and track your progress and protection.
