IVIG infusion practices

Hello

We are noticing an uptick in our ADR rates for our patients receiving Flebogamma 10%. We are looking for institutions to share your infusion practices for IVIG. What is your institution’s preferred product? What rate of infusion and progression protocol do you follow?

Thanks!
