Alburel T 20% Injection 100ml

About

Alburel T 20% Injection contains human albumin, a vital plasma protein essential for maintaining oncotic pressure and transporting various substances in the blood. This sterile solution is used to expand plasma volume and correct hypoalbuminemia in patients suffering from conditions such as shock, extensive burns, acute liver failure, or nephrotic syndrome. Its administration helps stabilize hemodynamics and supports critical physiological functions by drawing fluid into the intravascular space, thereby preventing fluid shifts into tissues and maintaining circulatory stability.

Uses

• Plasma volume expansion in shock.
• Treatment of severe burns.
• Correction of low albumin levels.
• Support in acute liver failure.

Directions For Use

Administer intravenously as prescribed by a physician. The rate and volume of infusion are tailored to the patient's clinical status.

Benefits

• Effectively expands circulating blood volume.
• Maintains colloid osmotic pressure.
• Facilitates transport of critical molecules.
• Reduces edema in specific conditions.
• Supports recovery from severe trauma.
• Essential for fluid balance regulation.

Side Effects

• Flushing
• Fever
• Chills
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Tachycardia (rapid heart rate)
• Hypotension (low blood pressure)
• Allergic reactions (rash, urticaria)

Safety Measures

• Alcohol - Not directly applicable as it's an IV infusion for critical conditions; alcohol consumption is generally not advised in such clinical scenarios.
• Pregnancy - Use only if clearly indicated and the potential benefits outweigh the risks, under close medical supervision.
• Breastfeeding - Generally considered safe, as albumin is a natural component of human plasma, but consult a doctor.
• Liver - Used in some liver conditions, but monitor for fluid overload and electrolyte imbalances.
• Kidney - Use with caution in patients with severe renal impairment due to the risk of fluid overload; monitor renal function closely.
• Lung - Contraindicated in severe anemia or cardiac failure with normal or increased intravascular volume, and in pulmonary edema.
