WHAT ALBUREX
® 5 AU
IS USED FOR
Alburex
®
5 AU is used to
restore and stabilise the
circulating blood volume. It is
normally used under intensive
care situations, when your blood
volume has decreased critically.
This may be the case, for
example:
•
due to severe loss of blood
after an injury
_or_
•
due to a large surface burn.
The choice of using Alburex
®
5
AU will be made by your
doctor. It will depend on your
individual clinical situation.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE
ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY
ALBUREX
® 5 AU HAS BEEN
PRESCRIBED FOR YOU.
HOW ALBUREX
® 5 AU
WORKS
Albumin stabilises the
circulating blood volume. It is a
carrier of hormones, enzymes,
medicines and toxins. The
albumin protein in Alburex
®
5
AU is isolated from human
blood plasma. Therefore the
albumin works exactly as if it
was your own protein.

DOSAGE
The dose required depends on the size of the patient, the severity of
trauma or illness and on
continuing fluid and protein losses. Measures of adequacy of
circulating volume and not
plasma albumin levels should be used to determine the dose required.
Infusion rate and
volume need to be adapted according to clinical conditions, most
notably in the elderly or in
the paediatric population.
_PAEDIATRIC POPULATION _
The dosage in children and adolescents (0–18 years) should be
adjusted to the patient’s
individual requirements.
