SIDE EFFECTS
Adverse Reaction Overview
The most serious adverse events observed in clinical studies of CINRYZE (c1 esterase inhibitor [human] freeze dried powder) have been death due to non-catheter related foreign body embolus, pre-eclampsia resulting in emergency C-section, stroke, and exacerbation of HAE attacks, none of which have been considered drug related.
The most common drug related adverse reactions observed at a rate ≥ 5% were upper respiratory tract infections, sinusitis, rash, and headache.
