Description

ETAMSYLATE

ETAMSYLATE belongs to the class of antihemorrhagic drugs. It is indicated in the treatment of small vessel haemorrhage menorrhagia (menstrual bleeding that lasts more than 7 days) including IUD users and prophylaxis of periventricular haemorrhage in neonates. It prevents and controls bleeding from small blood vessels and neonatal intraventricular haemorrhage. Besides this, ETAMSYLATE can prevent periventricular haemorrhages in prematurely born children.

ETAMSYLATE contains Etamsylate, a hemostatic agent that improves platelet adhesion by restoring capillary resistance and improving platelet adhesion. On the other hand, this medicine also inhibits the biosynthesis and action of prostaglandin. These effects help to decrease abnormal bleeding.

ETAMSYLATE should be used as prescribed by the physician. ETAMSYLATE may cause side effects such as headache, skin rash, nausea and low blood pressure. These side effects are short and may go away with time; however, if they continue, consult a doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any medications and foods, if you have acute porphyria, fever, non-cancerous growths or blood pigment disorder, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. ETAMSYLATE is not recommended to use before the onset of bleeding during periods, so inform your doctor about your condition. And also, notify your doctor about your current list of medications, pre-existing diseases, and current health conditions (e.g. pregnancy, upcoming surgery, etc.) in order to rule out any potential negative effects.
