Syfovre is a complement C3 inhibitor. It works by inhibiting the complement protein C3, which plays a key role in the inflammatory processes that contribute to retinal cell damage and the progression of geographic atrophy.
Syfovre is administered via intravitreal injection by a qualified healthcare professional. Common side effects may include eye discomfort, floaters, and increased risk of eye infections. Regular monitoring by an eye care specialist is required throughout treatment. Patients should report any signs of infection (pain, redness, sensitivity to light, vision changes) immediately.
