KONAKION AMPOULES 10MG/1ML 5’S

KONAKION AMPOULES 10MG/1ML is a brand name for vitamin K1 (phytomenadione), which is primarily used to prevent and treat vitamin K deficiency. This deficiency can lead to bleeding disorders due to impaired blood clotting. KONAKION is commonly administered to newborns to prevent hemorrhagic disease of the newborn, a serious condition that can occur due to low vitamin K levels at birth. It is also used in patients who are on anticoagulant therapy, such as warfarin, to reverse the effects of these medications in cases of excessive bleeding or when surgery is required. Additionally, KONAKION can be used in patients with malabsorption syndromes or liver disease, where vitamin K absorption may be compromised. The ampoules are typically given via intramuscular or intravenous injection, ensuring rapid availability of vitamin K in the body to support normal coagulation processes.
