Cangene's HepaGam B Available Directly from
FFF Enterprises

FFF Enterprises is pleased to announce that we now carry HepaGam B for the prevention of hepatitis B reinfection in certain liver transplant patients. Recently approved by the FDA and manufactured by the Canadian-based company, Cangene Corporation, HepaGam B is the first immune globulin product of its kind. "This approval provides a new treatment option for the reduction of hepatitis B recurrence in liver transplant patients with a prior history of this serious disease," said Jesse Goodman, M.D., M.P.H., director of FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research.

As always, FFF’s Guaranteed Channel Integrity provides a secure supply that ensures biopharmaceuticals move only from the manufacturer to FFF to the healthcare provider.
