Eight patients with adverse reactions were observed in a group of 20 primary agammaglobulinaemic patients treated with gammaglobulin derivatives. In four cases only sporadic reactions were observed, but in 2 cases repeated reactions made gammaglobulin therapy impossible. In the remaining two patients a change of gammaglobulin derivatives made adequate therapy possible. Possible causes of adverse reactions during gammaglobulin treatment and their prevention are discussed.
