Impaired immune responses render the subject more liable to bacterial and viral infections. Treat all infection early and vigorously (using bactericidal drugs where practicable) use human gamma globulin to protect if there is exposure to virus infections, e.g. measles, varicella. For example, patients who have not had chickenpox and are receiving therapeutic (as opposed to replacement) doses of corticosteroid are at risk of severe chickenpox they should receive varicella-zoster immunoglobulin if there has been contact with the disease within the previous 3 months.

Specific immunoglobulins, termed hyperimmune globulins, are derived from human donors known to have high titers of the desired antibody. Specific immunoglobulin preparations for use in infectious disease prevention include hepatitis B, rabies, tetanus. Varicella zoster, vaccinia, and cytomegalovirus immunoglobulin. 

Vaccinia immune globulin IV is a vaccinia-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG), which directly neutralizes vaccinia virus. It is indicated in treatment and/or modification of aberrant infections induced by vaccinia virus (including accidental implantation in eyes, mouth, or other areas where vaccinia infection would constitute a special hazard), eczema vaccinatum, progressive vaccinia, severe generalized vaccinia, and vaccinia infections in individuals who have skin conditions such as bums, impetigo, varicella-zoster, or poison ivy, or in individuals with eczematous skin lesions. Treat complications that include vaccinia keratitis with caution.
