16
What are possible side effects from using HyQvia?

These are not all the possible side effects you may have when taking HyQvia. If you experience any side effects not
listed here, tell your healthcare professional.

After HyQvia infusion a temporary, soft swelling may occur around the infusion site, which may last 1 to 3 days, due to
the volume of fluid infused.

The following local reactions may occur at the site of infusion and generally go away in a few hours:
• Mild or moderate pain, Redness, Swelling, Itching.

Local reactions are less likely after the first few infusions. The most common side effects of HyQvia are:
• Headache, Fatigue, Nausea, and Fever.

Serious warnings and precautions


Immunoglobulin (Human) products have been reported to be associated with heart and blood circulation problems
such as heart attack, stroke and blood clots (thrombosis). Some of these risk factors include obesity, old age,
prolonged periods of immobilization, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a history of heart disease. Thrombosis may
also occur even in the absence of known risk factor.

Talk to your doctor if you have risk factors for these kinds of conditions. Do not use HyQvia at home until you get
instructions and training from your healthcare professional. When using HyQvia at home, you must assign a guardian
person who will help you watch out for allergic reactions, stop the infusion, and get help if necessary.

Tell your healthcare professional immediately if you notice any of these signs during the infusion.

Are you planning to travel abroad?

Dear Patient,

Traveling while receiving treatment for primary or secondary immunodeficiency disease may seem to be a
daunting task. But there is nothing to stop anyone who is receiving Ig replacement therapy from going on a
holiday, especially if you are well-prepared and take appropriate precautions during your trip.

Because HyQvia is infused once every 3-4 weeks, you may not need to take your treatment supplies with you
during travel! For longer trips, this section of your Resources Binder provides information and tips to assist
you with your travel planning. Should you require additional information, your OnePath team is ready to help.
As a first step, please contact your Care Manager to discuss your travel plans and questions. Also, be sure
to discuss your travel plans with all of the doctors/nurses who are managing any other medical condition you
may have, over and above immune deficiencies.

This Travel Planning Information section includes:


• Travel information letter – Highlights key planning steps, what you should discuss with your doctor/
nurse and what documents and supplies you should plan to bring with you.
• Medical supplies travel letter – A medical letter signed by your doctor that explains why you are
travelling with vials of HyQvia and supplies necessary for infusions while away.
• ‘Vaccine exemption’ form for travelers – A medical form for patients whose doctors have advised
against receiving COVID-19 vaccines.

Although most COVID-19 travel restrictions have eased, you should consult local/provincial public health
guidelines for the most current recommendations and updates. The Public Health Agency of Canada currently
advises travelers to practice enhanced health precautions when travelling, as COVID-19 continues to circulate
in Canada and internationally. The virus continues to change over time and new variants will continue to
appear. So, make sure to consult with your healthcare team at least 6 weeks before you travel.

We look forward to assisting you with your journey.

Bon voyage,

KEY INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO


TRAVEL WHILE BEING TREATED WITH HYQVIA
A summary

The information and tips provided in this summary are intended to help you with your travel preparations and
to make them less stressful.

Be sure to discuss your travel plans with all of the doctors/nurses who are managing any other medical
condition you may have, over and above immune deficiencies.

Determine what travel restrictions may still be in place – Although most COVID-19 travel restrictions have
eased, you should consult local/provincial public health guidelines for the most current recommendations
and updates. The Public Health Agency of Canada currently advises travelers to practice enhanced health
precautions when travelling, as COVID-19 continues to circulate in Canada and internationally. The virus
continues to change over time and new variants will continue to appear. So, make sure to consult with your
healthcare team at least 6 weeks before you travel.

Here are two key resources to consult:


• Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel A US-headquartered
organization that maintains up-to-date, global information for travelers.
• Government of Canada website: www.travel.gc.ca Canadian travelers can access information
concerning traveler health, safety notices/advisories, plus advice on a number of topics such as travel
tool kits and receiving medical care in other countries.

Discuss your travel plans with your healthcare team several months before your departure:
• Whether the destination you have in mind is a good choice for you
• What extra precautions you may need to take
• Advice/suggestions about vaccinations, medication, and emergency treatment options
• Re-scheduling or modifying your infusion schedule to make sure you are in good health during your trip

Human Normal Immunoglobulin (10%)


Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase
C-APROM/CA/HYQ/0014
Collect and prepare key health documents that you may need to bring with you:
• Have your doctor fill in and sign the Medical supplies letter – Ask your doctor to include an
explanation about your (or your family member’s) immune deficiency. The letter also lists all medications
and medical equipment you will have to bring with you.
• Vaccination records – You may be required to present COVID vaccination proof, plus other vaccine
requirements for certain destinations. If you have obtained “vaccine exemption” status, you will need
your doctor to fill in and sign the exemption form.
• Other important documents – Bring your doctor’s/clinic contact information and additional information
about your or your family’s health, including healthcare records, and names/dosages of medications.

Prepare a travel kit for your medicines and supplies


• Pack your medicines – Organize the medicines that you will be bringing with you. Speak to your doctor
and get your prescriptions ready ahead of time.
• Pack all of your medical supplies in carry-on luggage – Carry your medicines, such as immunoglobulin
and antibiotics, in your hand luggage for easy access and in case your checked-in baggage is lost.

Prepare for local conditions and take extra precautions to maintain health
• Clothing requirements – Bring extra layers for cool temperatures and/or for protection from the sun.
• Hygiene – Maintain good hygiene conditions to protect from infections.
• Use mosquito repellent – To avoid mosquito-borne diseases like dengue fever or malaria that may be
present in some regions.
• Water supply – Drink bottled water only, as tap water in some areas can cause illness due to bacteria
and different mineral content. Do not drink well water or water from a stream, particularly when
camping, because it may have higher concentrations of bacteria, viruses, or parasites.
• Maintain a healthy diet – People with immune deficiencies are at a higher risk of infections, therefore
maintaining a healthy diet is especially important. Ask your doctor or nutritionist to create a balanced
meal plan that is right for you and based on foods that are available at your destination.
• Exercise and maintain physical activity – Staying physically fit - even when travelling - allows you to be
in the best condition to manage your immune deficiency. Always ask your doctor first before you start a
specific exercise routine.
• Swim with caution, as water in swimming pools and hot tubs may pose a health risk if the water/
pool is not cleaned often enough. Avoid swimming in polluted seas or lakes.
