HAEGARDA BRINGS ON STEADY C1-INH LEVELS IN APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS
With HAEGARDA, you know you’re giving your body more of what it needs to keep C1-INH levels steady. HAEGARDA brings your working C1-INH levels back up and closer to normal in 3 to 4 doses, or about 2 weeks, meaning you won’t have to wait too long for your peace of mind to kick in.
Discover the convenience of HAEGARDA. There is nothing more convenient than being attack free.
It may take a few weeks to get used to self-administration with HAEGARDA, and we’re here to support you every step of the way through guidance and our resources from HAEGARDA ConnectSM. Over time, you’ll find that self-injection becomes much easier.
HAEGARDA starts raising your C1-INH levels right away, after your first dose:
- It may take 3 to 4 doses of HAEGARDA (or a couple of weeks) for your C1-INH levels to stabilize
- Always be prepared with on-demand rescue therapy in case of any breakthrough attacks

Here are a few tips that can make it easier to start and stay with HAEGARDA:
Follow up with injection training
Through HAEGARDA ConnectSM, you can have a nurse come to your home to help you get comfortable with preparing and injecting your medicine, and to help you learn safe practices. This training is available at no cost to you at the start of your treatment. HAEGARDA nurses can train those diagnosed with HAE, parents, and/or caregivers.
Create a routine
Take HAEGARDA at the same time and on the same days each week. Use a calendar, planner, or journal to help you track your dosing schedule.
Continue to take HAEGARDA
You should continue to take HAEGARDA as prescribed to prevent HAE attacks, even if you haven’t had an attack in a while.
Keep it consistent
Because it’s a subcutaneous injection, HAEGARDA keeps the level of C1-INH steady and effective between doses. Stay with it and track your progress and protection.
