Product Introduction
Abcixirel 10mg Injection
Abcixirel 10mg injection contains the active ingredient Abciximab, a monoclonal anti-glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antibody. It is used in the treatment of heart conditions to protect the arteries and prevent blood clot formation. It is used in patients with unstable angina or mild heart attacks to reduce the risk of subsequent heart attacks. This injection maintains blood flow in the arteries by inhibiting platelet aggregation and clot formation, providing protection and reducing the chances of further heart-related complications.

Do not use this injection if you have active internal bleeding, recent (within six weeks) gastrointestinal or genitourinary bleeding of clinical significance, a history of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within the past two years, or CVA with a significant residual neurological deficit. Additionally, avoid this product if you have a bleeding diathesis, have been administered oral anticoagulants within the past seven days without achieving prothrombin time within 1.2 times the control, or have thrombocytopenia with a platelet count below 100,000 cells/μL. Furthermore, avoid use if you have undergone major surgery or trauma in the last six weeks, have an intracranial neoplasm, arteriovenous malformation, or aneurysm, suffer from severe uncontrolled hypertension, have a presumed or documented history of vasculitis, or have been treated with intravenous dextran before the percutaneous coronary intervention or intend to use it during an intervention. The safety and effectiveness of this medicine have not been studied in children.

Abcixirel 10mg injection may increase the risk of bleeding, particularly when combined with these drugs. Your doctor will weigh the potential benefits and risks of treatment. If severe bleeding occurs and cannot be controlled, the infusion and any other blood-thinning medication you are taking will be stopped. Discuss your medical history and any concerns with your doctor to ensure the safest treatment plan.
