ALPROLIX contains the active substance eftrenonacog alfa, recombinant
coagulation factor IX, Fc fusion
protein. Factor IX is a protein produced naturally in the body
necessary for the blood to form clots and stop
bleeding.
ALPROLIX is a medicine used for the treatment and prevention of
bleeding in all age groups of patients
with haemophilia B (inherited bleeding disorder caused by factor IX
deficiency).
ALPROLIX is prepared by recombinant technology without addition of any
human- or animal-derived
components in the manufacturing process.

properly. This medicine is used to
replace the missing or deficient factor I
