Anti D Rho 300mcg Injection is an immunoglobulin (also known as antibody). It helps in preventing antibodies from forming after a person with Rh-negative blood receives a transfusion with Rh-positive blood. It also helps during pregnancy when a mother has Rh-negative blood and the baby is Rh-positive.
Description
Anti Rho-D Immunoglobulin Injection, also known as Rho(D) immune globulin, is a medication used to prevent Rh inization, a condition where an Rh-negative individual develops antibodies against Rh-positive blood cells. It is typically administered as an intramuscular injection and contains 300 micrograms (mcg) of anti-D antibodies.
Active Ingredient:
- Rho(D) immune globulin: These are antibodies that specifically target and neutralize Rh-positive red blood cells, preventing the immune system from mounting an immune response against them.
Uses:
- Prevention of Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn (HDN):
- During Pregnancy: Administered to Rh-negative pregnant women during and after pregnancy if there is a risk of fetal-maternal hemorrhage (e.g., after amniocentesis, miscarriage, or abdominal trauma).
- Postpartum: Given within 72 hours after the birth of an Rh-positive baby to an Rh-negative mother to prevent the mother from developing antibodies that could affect future pregnancies.
