Pentaglobin should not be administered to infants concomitantly with calcium gluconate as the suspicion exists that adverse reactions may occur after simultaneous administration.
Live attenuated virus vaccines: Immunoglobulin administration may impair for a period of at least 6 weeks and up to 3 months the efficacy of live attenuated virus vaccines such as measles, rubella, mumps and varicella. After administration of this product, an interval of 3 months should elapse before vaccination with live attenuated virus vaccines. In the case of measles, this impairment may persist for up to 1 year. Therefore patients receiving measles vaccine should have their antibody status checked.
Paediatric population: It is expected that the same interaction mentioned for the adults may also occur in the paediatric population.
