How long does it take for Immune Globulin treatment?

Immunoglobulins are antibodies.

Antibodies stick to things they recognise - each antibody only recognises one thing. When they stick to those things, they act as little flags and alarm bells, attracting other cells to attack what they're stuck to.

A couple of things affect how fast they can help fight against something:

- the amount of immunoglobulins/antibodies - the more you have, the faster one will come in contact with the bad stuff, and the faster other cells will be called over to it.

- how many of those other cells are actually around to be called over

Immunoglobulins themselves don't actually have a response time - it's like a magnet: there's not really a response time for that, it's just attracted whenever there's something nearby for it to be attracted to.
