Intravenous immunoglobulin erythema

Skin reactions to intravenous immunoglobulin are rare (52,93-95). Other reported reactions include urticaria, maculopapular rashes, petechiae, eczema, and erythema multiforme (31,96). 

Skin Cutaneous reactions that are associated with intravenous immunoglobulin include erythema at the injection site, rashes, urticaria [40 ], and eczema [43 ]. 

The most commonly reported adverse events are mild local injection reactions, such as erythema, edema, swelling, pruritus, and local heat [48 , 60, 63 ], whose incidence decreases over time [48 ]. The incidence of non-infusion-site reactions after subcutaneous administration (0.24 events per infusion) is similar to the total incidence of 0.25 events per infusion during treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin [48 ]. Non-infusion-site adverse events after subcutaneous administration include headache, diarrhea, fatigue, and nausea [48 "]. 

Skin Cutaneous reactions associated with intravenous immunoglobulin are uncommon, but include pruritus, non-specific eruptions, erythema, urticaria, eczema, pompholyx, pete-chiae, and skin hemorrhage [53, 54 , 55 , 57 , 59 ].
