What is Feiba vh immuno?

Feiba VH Immuno is used in people who have hemophilia and have developed antibodies to clotting factor medications.

Hemophilia, an inherited blood-clotting disorder, is often treated with medicines containing clotting factors that help control bleeding. When the body develops antibodies or "inhibitors" to the clotting factor, this treatment becomes less effective in preventing bleeding episodes. Feiba VH Immuno works by bypassing the effects of these inhibitors to improve blood clotting and decrease the risk of bleeding.

Feiba VH Immuno is used to treat or prevent bleeding episodes in people with hemophilia A or B who have developed inhibitors. Feiba VH Immuno is also used to control bleeding related to surgery in people with hemophilia and inhibitors. This medicine is not for treating bleeding episodes in people who do not have inhibitors.

Feiba VH Immuno may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

Feiba VH Immuno may increase your risk of having a stroke or heart attack.

Call your doctor or seek emergency medical help right away if you have--sudden numbness or weakness, sudden headache, slurred speech, chest pain, trouble breathing, sudden cough with blood, warmth or swelling in your leg.

How should I use Feiba vh immuno

Feiba VH Immuno is injected into a vein through an IV. You may be shown how to use an IV at home. Do not give yourself this medicine if you do not understand how to use the injection and properly dispose of needles, IV tubing, and other items used.

To treat a bleeding episode, this medicine is usually given once every 6 to 12 hours until your condition improves. For routine prevention of bleeding, Feiba VH Immuno may be given every other day. Follow your doctor's dosing instructions very carefully.

If a child is using this medicine, tell your doctor if the child has any changes in weight. Feiba VH Immuno doses are based on weight in children, and any changes may affect your child's dose.

Feiba VH Immuno is a powder medicine that must be mixed with a liquid (diluent) before using it. If you are using the injections at home, be sure you understand how to properly mix and store the medicine.

Do not use the medicine if it has changed colors or has particles in it. Call your pharmacist for new medicine.

Use a disposable needle and syringe only once. Follow any state or local laws about throwing away used needles and syringes. Use a puncture-proof "sharps" disposal container (ask your pharmacist where to get one and how to throw it away). Keep this container out of the reach of children and pets.

Each single-use vial (bottle) of this medicine is for one use only. Throw away after one use, even if there is still some medicine left in it after injecting your dose.

Keep the medicine and diluent in their original container and store at room temperature, away from moisture, heat, and light. Do not allow the medicine to freeze.

After mixing Feiba VH Immuno with the diluent, store the mixture at room temperature and use it within 3 hours. Do not refrigerate mixed medicine.

Wear a medical alert tag or carry an ID card stating that you have hemophilia. Any doctor, dentist, or emergency medical care provider who treats you should know that you have a bleeding or blood-clotting disorder.
