Rystiggo, also known as rozanolixizumab, is a prescription medication used for the treatment of Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG) in adults. Rystiggo is a monoclonal antibody, which means it targets specific cells in the body that contribute to the symptoms of gMG.
Rystiggo works by targeting a specific protein in your immune system called FcRn. This protein can contribute to the production of harmful antibodies such as anti-AChR and anit-MuSK which cause the symptoms of gMG.
Rystiggo attaches to the FcRn receptor thereby blocking the harmful antibodies that are prevalent in those who are living with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG).

Rystiggo cost can vary depending on several factors including insurance status and insurance provider. At Pure Infusion Suites, we are committed to lowering costs and improving access for our patients. Our team of patient access coordinators are here to set you up for success.
We work with a growing list of insurance providers, and are always working to ensure claims/authorizations are processed efficiently. All patients are enrolled in co-pay assistance programs to assist in covering costs of treatment.
Additionally, data from an Artemetrx report shows average costs at an outpatient hospital facility are more than 3X higher than costs at an ambulatory infusion center. That means we save our patients’ money, while offering a more comfortable experience!
Before your injection, it is important to drink plenty of water and come to your appointment hydrated. Additionally, you must alert us as soon as possible to any changes in your insurance to ensure that we are still an in-network provider for your infusion therapy.
