Oxyptadil 150 MCG Injection is indicated for the treatment of patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and severe COVID-19 with ARDS. ARDS is a life-threatening lung injury that allows fluid to leak into the lungs. Due to this, breathing becomes difficult, and oxygen cannot get into the body.
Oxyptadil 150 MCG Injection contains Aviptadil, a synthetic form of human Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide (VIP), which helps reduce lung inflammation.
In some cases, Oxyptadil 150 MCG Injection may cause side effects such as diarrhoea, low blood pressure, facial flushing, and infusion-related reactions. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, talk to the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
Let the doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Oxyptadil 150 MCG Injection . Consult the doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep the doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any unpleasant side effects/interactions.
