Intravenous immune globulin (“IVIG”) is a product made up of human antibodies that can be given intravenously (through a vein). Antibodies are proteins your body makes to help you fight certain infections. Each antibody made by your body is slightly different because it fits like a lock and key to every foreign substance (such as a piece of a virus or bacterium) that gets into your body. Over the course of your life your body makes thousands of different antibodies as you are exposed to different infectious organisms that your body considers to be “foreign.”
Your body makes many different antibodies against different parts of the same foreign organisms, so IVIG can be very effective at preventing or treating infections in persons who do not have antibodies or who have low levels of antibodies. IVIG is prepared from the blood donated by thousands of people, to make a super-concentrated and very diverse collection of antibodies against many possible infectious organisms your body might encounter.
