Gamifant is used together with a medicine called dexamethasone to treat hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a rare disease that is sometimes inherited. HLH causes your immune system to attack healthy blood cells, which can lead to serious or life-threatening side effects on your spleen or liver. This medicine is for use in adults and children as young as newborn.

Gamifant is given after other treatments did not work or have stopped working.

Gamifant may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
