What does it do?

Aprotinin is a substance that inhibits proteolytic enzymes and is used in pharmaceuticals to reduce bleeding and promote hemostasis. It is mainly administered during surgery or in situations with a risk of bleeding to assist in blood coagulation.

Aprotinin promotes the blood coagulation process by inhibiting the activity of proteolytic enzymes in the blood. This helps to reduce bleeding and allows for rapid coagulation at the wound site.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Unlike other hemostatic agents, aprotinin acts by directly inhibiting proteolytic enzymes, which is specialized in effectively reducing bleeding. However, caution is necessary due to the possibility of allergic reactions during use.
