📋Overview
Ultomiris is a medication that works by inhibiting a part of the immune system known as the complement system. It is primarily used in conditions where abnormal complement activation leads to the destruction of blood cells, such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). These are rare, serious disorders that can cause anemia, blood clots, and organ damage. Ultomiris helps reduce the harmful effects of excessive complement activity in these diseases.
