Summary

This study tests whether intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) can reduce symptoms of autonomic dysfunction—such as dizziness, rapid heartbeat, and fatigue—in people with long COVID. Two hundred participants will receive either IVIG or a placebo (saline) for 9 months, plus coordinated non-drug care. The goal is to see if IVIG improves daily function and symptom severity.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin)
What this could lead to
If IVIG works, it could provide a treatment for autonomic symptoms like dizziness and rapid heart rate in long COVID patients.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 2 trial with 200 participants, so results are preliminary. IVIG can cause side effects like headache, fever, or allergic reactions, and may not prove effective.
