Privigen (immune globulin intravenous) "Privigen has been the only IVIG drug I can infuse at the recommended rates. Instead of an eight-hour 40 gram day, I'm down to 4.5 hours and 35 grams. Privigen has less fillers and preservatives which has made it a better infusion for me. Only one headache in two years and I was dehydrated as evidenced by my bloodwork results. And I knew I had not had enough water the day before."
