CUTAQUIG Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Warnings & Dosing
What is CUTAQUIG?
CUTAQUIG is the brand name for an immune globulin and is available as a subcutaneous infusion.
What dosages is CUTAQUIG available in?
CUTAQUIG is a solution containing 16.5% IgG (165 mg/mL) for subcutaneous infusion.
What is CUTAQUIG used for?
CUTAQUIG is an immune globulin and is used to treat people who have trouble fighting infections (primary humoral immunodeficiency or PI).
How does CUTAQUIG work?
CUTAQUIG is a replacement for immunoglobulin G (IgG). IgG is one type of antibody that your immune system naturally makes to help you fight off things that make you sick, like viruses and bacteria. But if you have certain medical conditions like PI, your immune system is either missing or isn’t working like it should. This can lead to problems like infections. The exact way Cutaquig works isn’t completely known. But it’s thought to work by boosting your immune system to help prevent infections.
How do I take CUTAQUIG?
CUTAQUIG is given as an injection under the skin using an infusion pump.
- Your dose depends on your body weight, previous dose of immune globulin therapy, and lab results. Your provider will calculate and adjust your dose, your infusion rate, and how often you need infusions based on how well you respond to the medication
- Your provider might also change your dose if you’re at risk of measles exposure (e.g., traveling to certain places) or if you were exposed to measles
