cause bleeding.
You may be given this medicine:

To help stop bleeding which has been caused by heparin/low molecular
weight heparin

To prevent a lot of bleeding if you have been treated with heparin/low
molecular weight heparin and

4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Protamine sulphate can be used
- in the treatment of overdosage or haemorrhage during heparin or Low
Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) therapy
- to counteract the anticoagulant effects of heparin or LMWH before
emergency surgery.
- to reverse the anticoagulant effects of heparin in cardiopulmonary
bypass procedures.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Protamine sulphate is administered as a slow intravenous injection
over a period of about 10 minutes or as a constant,
slow intravenous infusion. The largest single injection (bolus dose)
should not exceed 5 ml (7000 anti-heparin IU/50
mg protamine sulphate). Ideally the dose should be guided by blood
coagulation studies. The activated partial
thromboplastin time (APTT) activated clotting time (ACT), anti Xa and
bedside protamine neutralisation test are
adequate for this purpose. Coagulation tests are usually performed 5
to 15 minutes after protamine sulphate
administration. Further doses may be needed because protamine sulphate
is cleared from the blood more rapidly than
heparin and especially LMWH. The prolonged absorption after
subcutaneous administration of heparin or LMWH
might also indicate that repeated doses must be given.
_NEUTRALISATION OF HEPARIN_:
1 ml of Protamine sulphate LEO Pharma (10 mg protamine sulphate) will
neutralise approximately 1400 IU of heparin.
As heparin has a relatively short half-life when giv
