WHAT NOVOTHIRTEEN IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT NOVOTHIRTEEN IS
NovoThirteen contains the active substance catridecacog, which is
identical to human coagulation
factor XIII, an enzyme necessary for blood clotting. NovoThirteen
replaces the missing factor XIII and
helps to stabilise the initial blood clot by producing a mesh around
the clot.
WHAT NOVOTHIRTEEN IS USED FOR
NovoThirteen is
used to prevent bleeding in patients who do not have enough or are
missing part of
factor XIII (that is called A-subunit).
2.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE NOVOTHIRTEEN
It is important that you use NovoThirteen for injection immediately
after preparation.
DO NOT USE NOVOTHIRTEEN
•
If you are allergic to catridecacog or any of the other ingredients of
this medicine (listed in
section 6).
If you are not sure, ask your doctor before using this medicine.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Talk to your doctor before using NovoThirteen:
•
If you have or have ever had a higher risk of blood clots forming
(thrombosis), as NovoThirteen
may increase the severity of a pre-existing blood clot.
