RhoGAM is used for:

Preventing certain blood problems that may occur during pregnancy or blood transfusion. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

RhoGAM is an immunoglobulin (Ig), which contains antibodies to the Rho(D) antigen. Exactly how it works is unknown.

Do NOT use RhoGAM if:

• you have had an allergic reaction to other human immune globulins


• you have anti-immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using RhoGAM:

Some medical conditions may interact with RhoGAM. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have had an allergic reaction to blood or blood products


• if you have other blood problems (eg, anemia), bleeding problems, or IgA deficiency


• if you are Rho(D) negative or if your spleen has been removed

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with RhoGAM. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• Live vaccines (eg, measles, mumps, and rubella) because the effectiveness may be decreased by RhoGAM

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if RhoGAM may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use RhoGAM:

Use RhoGAM as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

• RhoGAM is usually administered as an injection at your doctor's office, hospital, or clinic. If you are using RhoGAM at home, carefully follow the injection procedures taught to you by your health care provider.


• If RhoGAM contains particles or is discolored, or if the vial is cracked or damaged in any way, do not use it.


• Keep this product, as well as syringes and needles, out of the reach of children and away from pets. Do not reuse needles, syringes, or other materials. Dispose of properly after use. Ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain local regulations for proper disposal.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use RhoGAM.

Important safety information:

• RhoGAM may cause drowsiness or dizziness. Do not drive, operate machinery, or do anything else that could be dangerous until you know how you react to RhoGAM. Using RhoGAM alone, with certain other medicines, or with alcohol may lessen your ability to drive or perform other potentially dangerous tasks.


• Avoid vaccinations with live virus vaccines (eg, measles, mumps, oral polio) for 3 months after using RhoGAM. Vaccinations may be less effective.


• RhoGAM is made from human plasma. There is an extremely low risk of developing a viral infection or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) after using RhoGAM. Discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor.


• RhoGAM may affect certain lab test results. Make sure your doctor and other lab personnel know you are using RhoGAM.


• LAB TESTS, including blood counts and antibody titers, may be required to monitor your progress or to check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.


• PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, discuss with your doctor the benefits and risks of using RhoGAM during pregnancy. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you are using RhoGAM, check with your doctor or pharmacist to discuss the risks to your baby.
