This medicine helps control bleeding by making the blood clot more quickly. It is used to stop bleeding from small blood vessels, often after surgery or injury. Its use during pregnancy and breastfeeding should only be under a doctor's supervision.
Indications
Monosemicarbazone Adrenochrome is indicated in the prevention and treatment of surgical and non-surgical capillary bleedings.
Pharmacology
Adrenochrome Monosemicarbazone is a haemostatic with a rapid onset of action. It contains a water soluble form of adrenochrome monosemicarbazone, a stable derivative of adrenochrome as the active substance. Adrenochrome is an oxidation product of adrenaline; it reduces normal and pathologic bleeding time by decreasing capillary permeability. It produces capillary haemostatis without exerting any of the adrenergic actions on respiration or cardiovascular system. Thus, despite its adrenaline like action on small blood vessels, does not give rise to the general systemic effects of sympathomimetic drugs.
Dosage & Administration
Important: Do not take any medication without a doctor's prescription. Self-medication can be dangerous.
For the prevention and treatment of capillary bleedings, accordingly to the severity of the case, 4-12 tablets divided over the day, preferably one hour before meals. Prior to surgery, medication is started on the preceding evening, either orally or by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of usually 1.5-5 mg. In addition, an injection is given about half an hour before the surgical intervention.
Injection solution should be administered by intramuscular or subcutaneous route; in emergency cases the injections may be given intravenously. The tablets should be taken orally.
