Description:
Lymphocyte immune globulin is used with other medications to prevent or treat rejection of a kidney transplant. It is also used to treat a certain blood disorder (aplastic anemia) in patients who cannot have a bone marrow transplant.
Cautions:
Only physicians experienced in immunosuppressive therapy in the treatment of renal transplant or aplastic anemia patients should use ATGAM.
Patients receiving ATGAM should be treated in facilities equipped and staffed with adequate laboratory and supportive medical resources.
