    • C1-esterase inhibitor human injection (Cinryze, Haegarda) is used to prevent swelling and painful attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE; an inherited condition that causes episodes of swelling in the hands, feet, face, airway, or intestines) in adults and children 6 years of age or older. C1-esterase inhibitor human injection (Berinert) is used to treat acute attacks of hereditary angioedema in adults and children who have symptoms affecting the stomach, intestines, face, throat, and airway. C1-esterase inhibitor human is in a class of medications called complement inhibitors. It works by replacing C1-esterase inhibitor that is normally produced by the body and that helps control inflammation and swelling.
