Guest guest Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Hi , I'm intrigued by what you said about 150 mg of Xolair not working even though your IgE was only 44. My most recent IgE was 91 and I'm on 150 mg, but so far I haven't seen any results. I haven't been on Xolair that long (I'm due for my 4th shot tomorrow), so I'm being as patient as possible, but I'm starting to think about requesting a dosage increase from my doctor. In 2004, my IgE was 188, so at least I have the lab work to back me up in getting an additional vial. Would you mind sharing more details about your situation? For example, how long did you stay at 150 mg before increasing the dosage? Did you see any effect when on 150 mg alone? How soon after adding the 75 mg dose did you start seeing improvement? Did your doctor have a hard time getting approval to increase the dosage? Thanks! My IgE count is fairly low at 44 but oddly enough, 150 didn't do the job. I currently take 150 and 75 alternating every two weeks and it has made a world of difference. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
