Alburel OS 20% Injection 100ml

About

Alburel O.S 20% Injection 100ml contains human albumin as its active ingredient. It is a liquid albumin preparation derived from human plasma and is used to replace lost blood or body fluids in cases such as excessive bleeding, surgery, or kidney dialysis. This medicine helps restore and maintain blood volume and can be administered to both adults and children. Albumin, a natural protein in the body, plays a crucial role in maintaining osmotic pressure between blood vessels and tissues, thereby regulating fluid balance.

Volume deficiencies can occur due to various medical conditions or treatments, including surgery, shock, severe trauma, liver failure, dialysis, and burns. Alburel O.S 20% Injection is commonly used to treat these deficiencies. However, since the drug is derived from human plasma, patients receiving frequent infusions may have a higher risk of contracting viral infections. To reduce this risk, your doctor may recommend vaccinations against Hepatitis A and B before starting treatment.

Before receiving Alburel O.S 20% Injection, inform your doctor if you have any underlying conditions such as high blood pressure, severe anemia, heart disease, lung inflammation, or breathing difficulties. You should not use this medication if you are allergic to human albumin or have had previous allergic reactions to it.

During treatment, regular monitoring is essential. Your doctor will check your blood pressure, perform routine blood tests, and monitor electrolyte levels to assess your circulatory function. Urine output, pulse rate, and hemoglobin levels will also be carefully tracked throughout the course of treatment. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, it is important to inform your doctor before receiving this medication.
