Biochem/physiol Actions

Etamsylate is a haemostatic agent that is used for the management of blood loss. Apparently etamsylate increases capillary wall resistance and platelet adhesives by inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins causing platelet disaggregation in a presence of vascular wound. Recent studies suggest that etamsylate antagonizes anti-coagulant activity of heparin.
