People who suffer from allergic asthma attacks can often benefit from using Xolair® (omalizumab), a prescription medication that comes in the form of an injection. The medication works by binding to certain antibodies to block the effects of allergic reactions, which can help prevent asthma attacks.
 
Most people tolerate Xolair well; and even when side effects occur, they are usually minor. Side effects of Xolair can include joint pain, reactions at the injection site, and body pain. Prior to taking Xolair, you should let your healthcare provider know if you have certain health conditions, such as osteoporosis, eczema, or glaucoma, to name a few.
