IPNet drug reports
One very well documented report of an attack requiring hospitalisation and treatment with heme arginate in a 39 year old susceptible female with AIP. However the patient also had an infection with fever that just as well could have caused the attack. Uneventful use reported in 4 patients with acute porphyria.

This list comprises raw data collected from different countries.
In some cases, a more comprehensive list of available drug packages is included.
Consequently, very similar terms may therefore appear multiple times.
Bold names are the searchable terms, while the gray names that follow are all mapped to the bolded term.
Note: The cleaning is done automatically by a proprietary algorithm, and it may produce errors.
We strive to improve it continuously.
