Endocryl 0.5ml Injection

Introduction:

Endocryl Injection contains n-butyl cyanoacrylate. It is a tissue adhesive solution used to control bleeding in skin wounds, including surgical incisions. It also eliminates the chance of infection and accelerates the wound healing process. It is used to control variceal (bleeding from the enlarged or swollen veins) gastrointestinal bleeding. It is also used to fix hernia meshes (medical device supports damaged tissue) in hernia surgery. 

You need to inform your physician if you have any disorders or allergic conditions before using Endocryl Injection. Report to your physician if you experience any hypersensitive reactions after the administration of this injection. It will be given to you by your health care professional.
