WHAT NUWIQ IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Nuwiq contains the active substance human recombinant coagulation
factor VIII (simoctocog alfa).
Factor VIII is necessary for the blood to form clots and stop
bleeding. In patients with haemophilia A
(inborn factor VIII deficiency), factor VIII is missing or not working
properly.
Nuwiq replaces the missing factor VIII and is used for treatment and
prevention of bleeding in patients
with haemophilia A and can be used for all age groups.
