What is Omalirel 150 mg injection?
Omalirel 150 mg injection contains omalizumab, given as an injection. It is manufactured by Reliance Lifesciences. This drug belongs to a group called biologics. Biologics are medicines made from proteins that target one specific part of the immune system, instead of acting broadly like older allergy drugs. It is used for allergy conditions that don’t settle down with regular treatment.
How does Omalirel 150 mg work in the body?
Your body makes a protein called IgE when it reacts to things like dust, pollen, or pet dander. In people with ongoing allergies, IgE levels stay high and keep triggering symptoms.
Omalizumab attaches to the free IgE floating in your blood. This stops it from reaching the cells that release histamine. With less histamine released, allergy flare-ups happen less often and feel milder when they do occur.
Side effects
Most side effects are mild and settle on their own. Some people notice nothing beyond a sore injection spot.
- Headache
- Pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site
- Joint pain
- Feeling tired
- Mild fever
- Allergic reaction with swelling of the face, lips, or throat
Call your doctor right away if you notice swelling, trouble breathing, or a rash spreading fast after the injection.
Who should not take this injection?
- Anyone who has had an allergic reaction to omalizumab before should not take it again.
- Pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers should use it only if the doctor confirms it’s needed.
- People with a past parasitic infection need extra checks before starting, since this drug can affect that immune response.
- Children below the age the doctor approves for this treatment should not receive it without proper evaluation.
Storing Omalirel 150 mg injection correctly
Keep the injection in a fridge, between 2°C and 8°C. Do not freeze it, and keep it away from direct light. Once the medicine is prepared for use, give it the same day.
When do doctors prescribe Omalirel 150 mg injection?
Doctors prescribe Omalirel 150 mg injection for people with allergic asthma that stays uncontrolled even with inhalers. It’s also used for chronic hives that keep returning despite antihistamine tablets. This medicine is added alongside other asthma or allergy treatments, not used in place of them. Most people notice fewer flare-ups within a few weeks of starting treatment.
