Octaplex 500 Iu Injection

Octaplex 500 Iu Injection belongs to hemostatic agents used to prevent and treat bleeding, mainly used to rapidly reverse anticoagulation caused by blood thinners like warfarin during severe bleeding or when emergency surgery or invasive procedures are required.

Octaplex 500 Iu Injection contains clotting factors (Factor II, Factor VII, Factor IX, Factor X), which work by replenishing vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors and antithrombotic proteins to restore normal blood clotting and prevent excessive bleeding.

In some cases, Octaplex 500 Iu Injection may cause side effects such as headache, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor immediately.

Octaplex 500 Iu Injection is used to treat bleeding by providing essential clotting factors (II, VII, IX, and X). It is mainly used to quickly reverse the effects of blood thinners like warfarin in emergencies when there is severe bleeding or before surgery. Octaplex 500 Iu Injection is also helpful for patients with haemophilia, liver disease, or vitamin K deficiency, as it replaces missing clotting factors and helps control bleeding. Additionally, it can be used to manage bleeding in conditions like disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
