RAPTIVA® (efalizumab) is an internal prescription medicine used to treat adults with the type of psoriasis that is not adequately treated with medicines that go on the skin. An FDA warning was issued, advising consumers of dangerous side effects and symptoms. Some of the symptoms of problems associated with Raptiva use are:

  • Seizures
  • Severe headaches
  • Fever
  • Disorientation / confusion
  • Impaired speech

These side effects could indicate serious illness or disorders such as lymphoma, meningitis, bacterial sepsis, or other serious brain infections. If you have experienced any of these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.

Progressive Multifocal Leukeoncephalopathy (PML)

A rare but serious side effect has been associated with the use of Raptiva. If you or a loved one has developed Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) as a result of being prescribed Raptiva for psoriasis, learn about your legal options. PML is caused by a virus that attacks the central nervous system. It is a rare, serious, and progressive neurologic disease. PML gets worse with time and can attack many parts of the brain simultaneously. There is no treatment for PML, and it is usually fatal.
