From the label: adverse reactions, continued

Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 7%) are nasopharyngitis and abdominal pain. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact CSL Behring at 1-866-915-6958 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety of ANDEMBRY reflects the exposure in a total of 164 adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older with hereditary angioedema (HAE) from a placebo-controlled study, VANGUARD [see Clinical Studies (14) ], and an open-label clinical study. Among the 164 patients who received at least one dose of ANDEMBRY 200 mg subcutaneously, 153 (93%) patients were exposed for at least one year. The median duration of ANDEMBRY treatment was 2.6 years. The safety data below is based on the 6-month placebo-controlled study (VANGUARD), in which ANDEMBRY 400 mg was administered subcutaneously as a loading dose followed by 200 mg (N=39) every month in patients with HAE.

What do FAERS reports show?

507 reports list garadacimab among the medicines taken, each a report of something that happened, not proof the medicine caused it; 3 are coded as a death and 127 as a hospital stay. Counts follow how widely a medicine is used and watched, and they are not a measure of how risky it is. Of the 17 reactions below, 3 are named by the same term (in US spelling) in the label's adverse reactions, warnings or patient leaflet; a reaction the label does not name may still be there under another word, and a report does not show that the medicine caused it.
