WHAT ALBUMEON IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR _WHAT IS ALBUMEON _ Albumeon is a plasma substitute. _HOW ALBUMEON_ _WORKS _ Albumin stabilises the circulating blood volume.

It is normally used under intensive care situations, when your blood volume has decreased critically. This may be the case e.g.: • due to severe loss of blood after an injury _or_ • due to a large surface burn The choice of using Albumeon will be made by your doctor. It will depend on your individual clinical situation. 2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU ARE GIVEN ALBUMEON Read this section carefully. The information given should be taken into consideration by you and your doctor before you are given Albumeon.
