When there is excessive bleeding, significant fluid loss, or during certain medical procedures like surgery or kidney dialysis, the body may require additional albumin to replenish the lost blood or body fluids. This medicine is administered in such cases to restore and maintain the blood volume and help improve the patient's condition.
