Gammaked (immune globulin) is prescribed for the treatment of primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI), a condition where the immune system is unable to produce enough antibodies to fight off infections effectively. This causes individuals with PI to experience recurrent, severe, and/or unusual infections.
As an immune globulin product, Gammaked provides a supplemental source of antibodies to help support the immune system in individuals with PI. It contains antibodies derived from human plasma, contributing to the patient's immune defenses.
