  • anticoagulant resistance
  • hypersensitivity reaction, severe or life-threatening (SC, IM, or IV use)
  • anaphylaxis (SC, IM, or IV use)
  • hyperbilirubinemia (neonates)

Pharmacology

  • Half-life: unknown
  • Metabolism: liver, CYP450: unknown
  • Excretion: urine, bile
  • Mechanism of Action: Used by liver for synthesis of some coagulation factors (II,VII,IX,X,C,S). Timing in the synthesis of these factors impacts reversal of elevated INR (~4 hours: F-VII, ~24 hours: F-II).
