WHAT EMERADE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Emerade is an auto-injector that contains adrenaline in a solution for
injection into the muscle
(intramuscular).
Adrenaline counteracts the fall of blood pressure in anaphylactic
reactions. It also stimulates the heart
and facilitates breathing.
Emerade is used for emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions
(anaphylaxis) caused by
allergens in foods, medicines, insect stings or bites and other
allergens as well as triggered by exercise
or unknown causes.
2.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE EMERADE
Your doctor should have explained when and how you should use Emerade.
If you are not completely
sure or you have questions you must contact your doctor.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Emerade can always be used during an allergic emergency. If you are
allergic (hypersensitive) to
sodium metabisulphite or to any of the other ingredients of Emerade,
your doctor will need to instruct
you under which circumstances Emerade should be used.
Talk to your doctor before using Eme
