Introduction to Fibrinorel 1gm Injection
Fibrinorel 1gm Injection contains an active component called as human fibrinogen. It treats bleeding episodes in people with a congenital Fibrinogen deficiency. These deficiencies can be caused by genetic mutations or by liver disease. It can be used as an adjunct to hemostasis (blood clotting) in adults undergoing surgery when control of bleeding by standard surgical techniques is ineffective or impractical. It is also used to help stop the bleeding and prevent further blood loss in cases of massive hemorrhage. It can be given to women who risk delivering their babies prematurely. It is also used in patients with acquired fibrinogen deficiency, which can be caused by liver disease, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), afibrinogenemia, hypofibrinogenemia or other conditions that damage the liver or interfere with its production.
If you have had an allergic reaction to Fibrinorel 1gm Injection or other blood products in the past, you should not receive it. It should not be given to people who are already actively bleeding. This is because it can increase the risk of forming a blood clot. If you have a history of thrombosis, you should not receive this medication without careful consideration. Special considerations are needed when administering this medication to pediatric and geriatric patients, including dosage adjustments based on age and weight and close monitoring.
Uses of Fibrinorel 1gm Injection
- Fibrinogen replacement therapy for bleeding disorders
- Coagulation management in liver diseases
- Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
- Afibrinogenmia
- Hypofibrinogenemia
Therapeutic Effects of Fibrinorel 1gm Injection
Fibrinorel 1gm Injection molecules are converted into fibrin by the enzyme thrombin. Fibrin strands form a meshwork, trapping blood cells and creating a stable blood clot at the site of injury or bleeding. This clot helps to staunch bleeding and promote wound healing. The missing Fibrinorel 1gm Injection enhances the body's ability to form these essential blood clots, preventing excessive bleeding in individuals with Fibrinorel 1gm Injection deficiency disorders.
Interaction of Fibrinorel 1gm Injection with other drugs
Inform the doctor about your medicines, including prescription, over-the-counter, nutritional or vitamin supplements, and herbal products. Certain medications may interact with Fibrinorel 1gm Injection, reducing effectiveness by causing undesirable side effects.

Word of Advice
It is essential to assess patients for allergies, potential allergic reactions, and underlying medical conditions like cardiovascular, liver, or kidney diseases, as these factors can impact Fibrinorel 1gm Injection. Medication interactions, especially with anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs, must be considered, and dosages adjusted accordingly. Thrombocytopenia, kidney dysfunction, and multiple transfusions can affect treatment response and require close monitoring. Patients receiving it from human plasma should be informed of the minimal risk of viral transmission.
FAQs
Q 1. Is Fibrinorel 1gm Injection therapy a lifelong treatment for congenital Fibrinorel 1gm Injection deficiency?
For individuals with congenital fibrinogen deficiency, Fibrinorel 1gm Injection therapy is often required throughout their lifetime to prevent bleeding episodes. The treatment plan is tailored to the patient's specific needs.
Q 2. Can Fibrinorel 1gm Injection therapy cause blood clots (thrombosis)?
While Fibrinorel 1gm Injection therapy promotes clot formation, it must be administered carefully to avoid excessive clotting (thrombosis). Patients at risk of thrombosis or with a history of clotting disorders should be monitored during treatment.
Q 3. Is it safe to receive too much Fibrinorel 1gm Injection?
Yes, excessive Fibrinorel 1gm Injection therapy can lead to an increased risk of thrombosis (clot formation). Healthcare providers closely monitor fibrinogen levels during treatment to ensure they remain within the desired range.
Q 4. Can Fibrinorel 1gm Injection be used in rare bleeding disorders other than fibrinogen deficiency?
Fibrinorel 1gm Injection may be considered in rare bleeding disorders characterized by dysfunction in fibrinogen function or in cases of acquired fibrinogen deficiencies due to underlying medical conditions.
Q 5. Is it safe to resume Fibrinorel 1gm Injection after experiencing side effects?
Whether to continue Fibrinorel 1gm Injection after experiencing side effects should be carefully evaluated by healthcare providers. In some cases, therapy may be resumed with precautions, while alternative treatments may be considered in others.
