Takhzyro is administered as an injection. The dosing schedule for HAE prevention typically starts under clinician direction and may be adjusted based on how well symptoms are controlled.
What side effects are patients asking about?
Commonly reported side effects for HAE preventive biologics like Takhzyro include injection-site reactions and other treatment-related effects.
