About Xolair
Xolair (omalizumab) was approved by the FDA in 2003 to treat patients 12 years and older with moderate to severe asthma caused by allergens also called allergic asthma. Xolair is an injection which helps reduce the number of asthma attacks for those who are still suffering from asthma symptoms even though they are taking inhaled steroids. Xolair is also approved for use with those who suffer from chronic hives and are not helped by taking H1 antihistamine treatments.
The possible side effects of Xolair include:
- Heart attack
- Mini-strokes
- Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs)
- Chest pain
- Pulmonary hypertension
- Blood clots in lungs and veins
- Cancer
In 2009, the FDA required the makers of Xolair, Grenentech, Inc., to perform a 5-year study regarding the safety of the drug. Due to the data from this study, the FDA ruled in September 2014 that new warnings on Xolair package inserts and prescribing information need to be added detailing the risks of serious complications caused by the drug’s side effects. During the same time, the FDA issued a drug safety warning that Xolair’s side effects can cause the serious complications listed above. The new safety warnings join a black box warning added in 2007 regarding the risk of severe and life threatening allergic reaction called anaphylaxis.
