How to Prepare for Augmentation Therapy

Your doctor will tell you how to prepare for augmentation therapy. Before beginning augmentation therapy, you should be tested for IgA deficiency, which is a genetic condition that increases the likelihood that you will have an allergic reaction to IgA.

Many doctors recommend that you be vaccinated against Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B before receiving augmentation therapy. This reduces the risk of damage or injury to your liver.

Learn more about what to expect during augmentation therapy.
