How it Works

Platelets are tiny cells in your blood that help form clots to stop bleeding. However, during certain heart procedures, clots can form where they are not needed, which can cause serious problems. Canreal 50mg Injection works by blocking a signal that tells these platelets to clump together. Canreal 50mg Injection works very quickly to stop clots from forming, and its effects wear off soon after the medication is stopped, so your blood can return to its normal clotting function when needed.
