  • Control of bleeding by standard surgical techniques (such as suture, ligature, or cautery) is ineffective or impractical

In various types of surgeries, solutions of THROMBIN-JMI may be used in conjunction with an Absorbable Gelatin Sponge, USP for hemostasis.

Data through 2021. Denotes 5,000 IU equivalent units. How THROMBIN-JMI works

Important Safety Information

WARNING: SEVERE BLEEDING AND THROMBOSIS COMPLICATIONS

  • THROMBIN-JMI can cause fatal severe bleeding or thrombosis. Thrombosis may result from the development of antibodies against bovine thrombin. Bleeding may result from the development of antibodies against factor V. These may cross-react with human factor V and lead to its deficiency. 
  • Do not re-expose patients to THROMBIN-JMI if there are known or suspected antibodies to bovine thrombin and/or factor V.
  • Monitor patients for abnormal coagulation laboratory values, bleeding, or thrombosis.
  • Do not inject directly into the circulatory system. Because of its action in the clotting mechanism, THROMBIN-JMI can cause extensive intravascular clotting or death.
  • Do not re-expose patients to THROMBIN-JMI if there are known or suspected antibodies to bovine thrombin and/or factor V.
  • Do not administer to patients with a history of hypersensitivity to THROMBIN-JMI, its components and/or to material of bovine origin.
  • Do not use for treatment of severe or brisk arterial bleeding.
  • Allergic reactions, including anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions, have been reported following administration of THROMBIN-JMI.
  • Institute intensive supportive measures and treat individual symptoms. Secure the airway and establish adequate respiratory exchange.
  • THROMBIN-JMI causes thrombosis if it enters the circulatory system. Apply topically. DO NOT INJECT.
  • Inhibitory antibodies may develop in patients and interfere with hemostasis. Monitor patients for abnormal coagulation laboratory values, bleeding, or thrombosis.
Most common adverse reactions (incidence greater than or equal to 2%) are hypersensitivity, bleeding, anemia, post-operative wound infection, thromboembolic events, hypotension, pyrexia, tachycardia and thrombocytopenia. Advise patients to consult their physician if they experience leg tenderness or swelling, chest pain, shortness of breath, or difficulty speaking or swallowing. There is no human or animal data regarding use during pregnancy. It is also not known whether THROMBIN-JMI can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. THROMBIN-JMI should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.Safety and effectiveness in children have not been established.Please see full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING, for THROMBIN-JMI.INDICATIONTHROMBIN-JMI is topical bovine thrombin indicated to aid hemostasis whenever oozing blood and minor bleeding from capillaries and small venules is accessible and control of bleeding by standard surgical techniques (such as suture, ligature, or cautery) is ineffective or impractical.In various types of surgeries, solutions of THROMBIN-JMI may be used in conjunction with an Absorbable Gelatin Sponge, USP for hemostasis.Please see full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING, for THROMBIN-JMI.
