WHAT AFSTYLA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
AFSTYLA is a human clotting (coagulation) factor VIII product that is
produced by recombinant
DNA technology. The active substance in AFSTYLA is lonoctocog alfa.
AFSTYLA is used to treat and prevent bleeding episodes in patients
with haemophilia A (inborn factor
VIII deficiency). Factor VIII is a protein needed for blood to clot.
Patients with haemophilia A lack
this factor, so blood does not clot as quickly as it should and they
have an increased tendency to bleed.
AFSTYLA works by replacing the missing factor VIII in haemophilia A
patients enabling their blood
to clot normally.
AFSTYLA can be
