Hyqvia Dosage

Hyqvia is given as an injection under the skin of the stomach or thighs using an infusion pump.

PI:

• Your dose depends on your body weight, the IgG levels in your blood, and whether you were previously using another immune globulin therapy.
• You'll start at a low dose, and then ramp up your dose over the first 7 weeks of treatment. You'll typically infuse the medication once during weeks 1, 2, 4, and 7. Then, you'll infuse Hyqvia once every 3 to 4 weeks thereafter.
• Your provider will adjust your dose based on how well Hyqvia is working for you and whether you're having side effects. Your dose might also differ if you've been exposed to measles or if you're at risk of measles exposure (e.g., traveling to certain places).

CIDP:

• Your Hyqvia dose depends on the dose of your previous intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) therapy.
• Your first dose of Hyqvia will be 2 weeks after your last IVIG dose. You'll start Hyqvia at a low dose and then ramp up your dose over several weeks of treatment (can take up to 9 weeks). Then, you'll infuse Hyqvia once every 3 to 4 weeks thereafter.
• Your provider will adjust your dose based on how well Hyqvia is working for you and whether you're having side effects.
