The median duration of once-weekly infusions was <1 hour (0.95 hours; range: 0.2-6.4 hours) in the North American clinical study.
84.9% of infusions (N=4314) were administered using only 1 or 2 infusion sites (18.5%=1 site; 66.4%=2 sites) in the North American clinical study.
Patients who had received IVIG previously reported that CUVITRU fit better into their schedules and was more convenient than IVIG infusion.†
