SOLIRIS (eculizumab): The first treatment specifically approved for PNH

My PNH Story.

Real stories from real people about the disease — and SOLIRIS treatment

If you or a loved one is affected by PNH, you're not alone. While these stories — like PNH — are unique to each individual, confronting PNH with strength and courage is something everyone touched by the disease shares.

As you read the following stories, remember that the signs and symptoms of PNH are highly variable and differ from patient to patient. Chronic hemolysis, the underlying cause of PNH in all patients, is the cause of these signs and symptoms.1 Your own experiences may differ from those described in these stories.
