Lamzede 10 mg powder for solution for infusion

4.2    Posology and method of administration

Infusion of Lamzede at home may be considered for patients who are tolerating their infusions well. The decision to have a patient move to home infusion should be made after evaluation and recommendation by the treating physician. Patients experiencing infusion-related reactions, including hypersensitivity reactions or anaphylactic reactions, during the home infusion need to immediately reduce the infusion rate or to stop the infusion process considering the severity of the reaction and seek the attention of a healthcare professional. Dose and infusion rate in home setting should remain the same used in the hospital setting; they could be changed only under the supervision of a healthcare professional and treating physician.

Appropriate training should be given by the treating physician and/or nurse to the patient and/or caregiver prior to initiation of home infusion

Lamzede is only used under the supervision of a doctor who is knowledgeable in the treatment of Alpha Mannosidosis disease. Your doctor may advice that you can be treated at home provided you meet certain criteria. Please contact your doctor if you would like to be treated at home.
