Overview
Gammagard Liquid ERC is used as replacement therapy for primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI) in adults and children 2 years and older. It is a single-dose liquid medicine that contains immunoglobulin G (Human) (IgG) antibodies that protect the body against infection. Gammagard Liquid ERC is a low IgA formulation of Gammagard that provides a safer treatment option for IgA-deficient patients with PI. It is made from human plasma that has been donated by healthy people. The low IgA content (≤2 µg/mL) in Gammagard Liquid ERC minimizes a person's exposure to IgA protein, reducing the likelihood of triggering an anti-IgA antibody reaction and allowing for safer immunoglobulin treatment. Gammagard Liquid ERC will eventually replace Gammagard S/D , which will cease manufacture at the end of December 2027. Gammagard Liquid ERC (low IgA Immune Globulin Infusion [Human] 10%) gained FDA approval on June 30, 2025.
