Serious risk of infections
Serious infections caused by encapsulated bacteria1
FABHALTA, a complement inhibitor, increases the risk of serious infections, especially those caused by encapsulated bacteria, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, and Haemophilus influenzae type B. Life-threatening and fatal infections with encapsulated bacteria have occurred in patients treated with complement inhibitors. These infections may become rapidly life-threatening or fatal if not recognized and treated early.1
Because of the risk of serious infections caused by encapsulated bacteria, FABHALTA is available only through a REMS program called the FABHALTA REMS.1
