Introduction
INTRODUCTION ABOUT ETHASYL INJECTIONETHASYL INJECTION contains Ethamsylate, which belongs to the group of medicines called Antihemorrhagic drugs. It is used to manage bleeding from the blood vessels and to manage bleeding before or after an operation. Ethamsylate exerts hemostatic action by improving platelet adhesiveness and restoring capillary (blood vessels) resistance. It decreases bleeding time and increases platelet clumping which reduces capillary bleeding and improves capillary wall stability. Before the management, your doctor might want to do certain blood tests to understand your existing condition. ETHASYL INJECTION is not recommended for use if you have porphyria (defect in the synthesis of haemoglobin) or bronchial asthma. Before receiving ETHASYL INJECTION inform your doctor if you have hypotension or unstable blood pressure. ETHASYL INJECTION should be used with caution in pregnant women.
