Intravenous immunoglobulin

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is a proposed treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome

Evidence
There is no systematic evidence for the use of IVIG in the treatment of ME or CFS.

One case study recorded a paradoxical effect where IVIG administration increased the replication of Parvovirus B19, a pathogen associated with CFS.
