Introduction of immunoglobulin and preventive vaccinations
Treatment with immunoglobulin drugs reduces the effectiveness of vaccination, so vaccinations are conducted no earlier than 2-3 months after the administration of immunoglobulin.
Persons with allergic diseases (bronchial asthma, atopic dermatitis, recurrent urticaria) or prone to allergic reactions on the day of immunoglobulin administration and for the next 8 days are recommended to prescribe antihistamines. In the period of aggravation of the allergic process, the drug is administered by the conclusion of an allergist.
Persons suffering from autoimmune diseases (blood diseases, connective tissue, nephritis, etc.) should be given the drug on the background of appropriate therapy.
Immunoglobulin penetrates into breast milk and can facilitate the transfer of protective antibodies to the newborn.
Temporary elevation of antibodies in the blood after administration leads to false-positive analysis results in a serological study (Coombs reaction).
After the administration of the drug, the patient should be monitored for at least 30 minutes. In the room where the drug is administered, there should be antishock therapy.With the development of anaphylactoid reactions, antihistamines, glucocorticosteroids and adrenomimetics are used. At pregnancy enter only under strict indications when the prospective benefit for the mother exceeds the potential risk for the fetus.
The recommended rate of administration should be observed. A faster injection can cause the development of a collapoid reaction.
