OVERDOSE
Although no data are available, clinical experience reported with other human immune globulins suggests that the only manifestations of overdose with Nabi-HBTM, Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (Human), would be pain and tenderness at the injection site.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Individuals known to have had an anaphylactic or severe systemic reaction to human globulin should not receive Nabi-HBTM, Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (Human), or any other human immune globulin. Nabi-HBTM contains less than 40 micrograms/mL IgA. Individuals who are deficient in IgA may have the potential to develop IgA antibodies and have an anaphylactoid reaction. The physician must weigh the potential benefit of treatment with Nabi-HBTM against the potential for hypersensitivity reactions.
Generic Name: Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (Human)
