Introduction

Stopcrome is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient Adrenochrome Monosemicarbazone. It is available under the brand name Stopcrome. This medication is primarily used to treat certain bleeding disorders by promoting the formation of blood clots and reducing bleeding.

Uses

Stopcrome is prescribed to manage bleeding conditions such as menorrhagia (excessive menstrual bleeding), epistaxis (nosebleeds), bleeding after dental procedures, and bleeding associated with surgical interventions. It helps control bleeding by stimulating the clotting process and reducing the duration and severity of bleeding episodes.

It is typically given as an intramuscular injection. The exact dosage and frequency will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your specific needs.

Mechanism of Action

Adrenochrome Monosemicarbazone, the active ingredient in Stopcrome, works by promoting the formation of blood clots. It does this by enhancing the activity of certain clotting factors in the blood. This helps to control bleeding and prevent excessive blood loss in individuals with bleeding disorders.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include pain or discomfort at the injection site, headache, dizziness, and nausea. These side effects are usually mild and temporary.

In rare cases, serious side effects may occur. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, such as difficulty breathing, chest pain, or swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, seek immediate medical attention.
