Helixate^® FS, Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), is a recombinant factor VIII treatment indicated for the treatment of hemophilia A. The most frequently reported adverse events were local injection-site reactions, dizziness, and rash. Known intolerance of allergic reactions to constituents of the preparation is a contraindication to the use of Helixate^® FS. Known hypersensitivity to mouse or hamster protein may be a contraindication to the use of Helixate^® FS.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Important Safety Information About Mononine^®

Coagulation Factor IX (Human), Mononine^®, is indicated for the prevention and control of bleeding in Factor IX deficiency, also known as Hemophilia B or Christmas disease.

Mononine^® is not indicated in the treatment or prophylaxis of Hemophilia A patients with inhibitors to Factor VIII.

Mononine^® is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to mouse protein.

The following adverse reactions may be observed after administration: headache, fever, chills, flushing, nausea, vomiting, tingling, lethargy, hives, stinging or burning at the infusion site, or other manifestations of allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis.

Mononine^® is derived from human plasma. As with all plasma-derived products, the risk of transmission of infectious agents, including viruses and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent, cannot be completely eliminated.

Since the use of Factor IX Complex concentrates has historically been associated with the development of thromboembolic complications, the use of Factor IX-containing products may be potentially hazardous in patients with signs of fibrinolysis and in patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).

Important Safety Information About Humate-P^®

Antihemophilic Factor/von Willebrand Factor Complex (Human), Dried, Pasteurized, Humate-P^® is indicated in adult patients for treatment and prevention of bleeding in hemophilia A (classical hemophilia). Humate-P^® is also indicated in adult and pediatric patients with von Willebrand disease (VWD) for (1) treatment of spontaneous and trauma-induced bleeding episodes, and (2) prevention of excessive bleeding during and after surgery. This applies to patients with severe VWD, and patients with mild and moderate VWD for whom use of desmopressin is known or suspected to be inadequate.

Humate-P^® is contraindicated in individuals with a history of anaphylactic or severe systemic response to antihemophilic factor or von Willebrand factor preparations or to any of its components.

Thromboembolic events have been reported in VWD patients receiving coagulation factor replacement, especially in the setting of known risk factors for thrombosis. Caution should be exercised and antithrombotic measures considered.

Humate-P^® is derived from human plasma. As with all plasma-derived products, the risk of transmission of infectious agents, including viruses and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent, cannot be completely eliminated.

Although few adverse reactions have been reported the most common are allergic-anaphylactic reactions, including urticaria, chest tightness, rash, pruritus, edema, shock, chills and fever, and hypervolemia. For patients undergoing surgery, the most common adverse reactions are postoperative wound or injection-site bleeding.

Important Safety Information About Stimate^®

Stimate^® Nasal Spray is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to desmopressin or any of the components of Stimate^®. Stimate^® should not be used in patients with type 2B VWD, since platelet aggregation may be induced. Stimate^® Nasal Spray is for intranasal use only.

To decrease the potential for hyponatremia or water intoxication, especially in the young and the elderly, patients using desmopressin who are not in need of antidiuretic hormone for its antidiuretic effect should be cautioned to reduce fluid intake, ingesting only enough to satisfy thirst. Such patients should be monitored for the rare occurrence of an extreme decrease in plasma osmolality that could result in seizures, possibly leading to coma.

Other adverse reactions reported with use of injectable and/or intranasal desmopressin acetate include headache, nausea, somnolence, dizziness, chest pain, palpitations and tachycardia, and severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. See full prescribing information for a complete list of adverse reactions.
