His life is real. Give him real protection.
Real efficacy in routine prophylaxis and on-demand treatment
- Real joint protection when used as routine prophylaxis in children (0-16years) with no preexisting joint damage 1, 2
- 92.7% of bleeding episodes in PTPs managed with 1 to 2 infusions1†
- 88.1% of bleeding episodes in PUPs and MTPs managed with 1 to 2 infusions1**
- The most serious adverse reactions are systemic hypersensitivity reactions and the development of hightiter inhibitors necessitating alternative treatments to AHF. The most common adverse reactions observed in clinical trials were:
- Inhibitor formation in previously untreated or minimally treated patients
- Skin-associated hypersensitivity reactions
- Infusion site reactions
- Central venous access device (CVAD) line-associated infections
- State of the art manufacturing process
- Low inhibitor rate formation in clinical studies*
- Exclusive tamper-evident/anticounterfeiting packaging features

- One of the smallest diluent volumes available
- 2.5 mL for 250 IU, 500 IU, and 1000 IU product sizes
- 5.0 mL for 2000 IU and 3000 IU product sizes
- Grab & Go packaging—compact and convenient
* No FVIII inhibitors developed in 72 PTPs who received Kogenate FS for up to 54 exposure months. In trials with PUPs and MTPs, 88% of patients (53 of 60) achieved 20 or more exposure days, and the incidence of inhibitor formation (15%) is consistent with that observed in other pediatric studies using FVIII products.3 In the pediatric prophylaxis clinical trials, de novo inhibitor development was observed in 8 of 64 patients with negative baseline values (12.5%) ; 2 patients developed high-titer inhibitors and were withdrawn from the study.1 For important risk and use information, please see the full prescribing information.
†During clinical trials with previously treated patients; n=5684 mild, moderate or severe bleeding episodes.
**During clinical trials with previously untreated or minimally treated patients; n=1047 mild, moderate or severe bleeding episodes.
