Lymphocyte immune globulin; Anti-thymocyte globulin (Equine)

Anaphylaxis

  • Antithymocyte globulins can cause anaphylaxis when injected intravenously. Although ATGAM is processed to reduce the level of antibodies that will react to non-T cells, physicians should be prepared for the potential risk of anaphylaxis and monitor patients for signs and symptoms during infusion.
