Lg-Octaplas (Human Plasma Protein)

Human plasma protein, the active ingredient in Lg-Octaplas, is a plasma protein fraction presented as a lyophilized powder for intravenous use. It provides replacement therapy for coagulation factor deficiencies and supports plasma volume in patients with massive hemorrhage or surgical trauma.

GNH India supplies Lg-Octaplas as a licensed, GDP-compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals worldwide.

Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Lg-Octaplas is used in the management of disorders affecting coagulation and plasma volume.
  • Replacement therapy for coagulation factor deficiencies: restores deficient clotting factors to improve hemostasis.
  • Massive hemorrhage control: supplies plasma proteins to control bleeding and maintain circulatory volume.
  • Plasma volume replacement in surgical or trauma settings: expands intravascular volume to support perfusion.

How It Works

  • Lg-Octaplas contains a broad spectrum of human plasma proteins, including fibrinogen, prothrombin, factors V, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XII, albumin and globulins. After intravenous infusion these proteins replenish deficient coagulation factors and increase oncotic pressure, thereby supporting clot formation and restoring plasma volume.

Side Effects

Lg-Octaplas may be associated with adverse reactions typical of plasma‑derived products.

Common Side Effects

  • Allergic reaction: mild urticaria or rash.
  • Fever: transient increase in body temperature.
  • Headache: mild to moderate headache.
  • Nausea: occasional nausea.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Anaphylaxis: severe, potentially life‑threatening hypersensitivity.
  • Transfusion‑related acute lung injury (TRALI): acute respiratory distress.
  • Transmission of infectious agents: rare risk of viral contamination.
  • Thromboembolic events: clot formation in vessels.

Precautions & Warnings

  • When using Lg-Octaplas, clinicians should observe several safety measures.
  • Allergy assessment: verify no known hypersensitivity to human plasma proteins.
  • Infection screening: ensure donor screening and product viral inactivation have been performed.
  • Volume overload: monitor patients with cardiac or renal insufficiency.
  • Coagulopathy monitoring: check coagulation parameters before and after infusion.
  • Pregnancy and lactation: use only if benefit outweighs risk, as safety data are limited.
  • Store at 2-8°C: keep refrigerated, protect from light, do not freeze or shake.

Avoid Interactions

Lg-Octaplas can interact with other medications that affect hemostasis or fluid balance.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concomitant anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, heparin): may increase bleeding risk.
  • High‑dose fibrinolytics: may exacerbate coagulopathy.
  • Other plasma‑derived products: risk of volume overload.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Immunosuppressants: monitor for altered immune response.
  • Renal replacement therapy: adjust volume status monitoring.
  • Diuretics: watch for electrolyte shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lg-Octaplas is a plasma‑derived product indicated for replacement therapy in patients with deficiencies of coagulation factors, for control of massive bleeding, and for plasma volume expansion during surgery or trauma. It supplies a broad range of plasma proteins to support hemostasis and circulatory stability.

Human plasma protein in Lg-Octaplas provides fibrinogen, prothrombin, and multiple clotting factors together with albumin and globulins. When administered intravenously, these proteins replenish deficient factors, enhance clot formation, and increase oncotic pressure, thereby helping to stop bleeding and restore intravascular volume.

The dose of Lg-Octaplas is individualized and determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s specific coagulation deficit, body weight, severity of bleeding, and clinical setting. Dosing calculations are performed by the healthcare professional and are not standardized in public literature.

Safety data for Lg-Octaplas in pregnancy and lactation are limited; the product should be used only when the potential benefit to the mother outweighs any possible risk to the fetus or infant. Clinicians should assess each case carefully and follow local regulatory guidance.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity of Lg-Octaplas. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including cold‑chain if needed) and required import documentation.

Lg-Octaplas is a lyophilized plasma protein fraction that offers a broad spectrum of clotting factors in a stable, reconstitutable form, whereas fresh frozen plasma provides whole plasma but requires cold storage and rapid use. Compared with specific factor concentrates, Lg-Octaplas delivers multiple factors simultaneously, which can be advantageous in complex coagulopathies or massive bleeding.

Lg-Octaplas should be stored at 2‑8 °C in a refrigerator, protected from light, and must not be frozen or shaken. The lyophilized powder remains stable until reconstitution; once reconstituted, it should be used promptly according to the product’s prescribing information and discarded if not used within the recommended time frame.

Lg-Octaplas is supplied as a lyophilized powder that must be reconstituted with the appropriate diluent under aseptic conditions. The resulting solution is administered by intravenous infusion, typically through a peripheral or central line, with infusion rates adjusted by the treating physician based on the patient’s clinical response and tolerance.

The most serious adverse events linked to Lg-Octaplas include severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, transfusion‑related acute lung injury (TRALI), and rare transmission of infectious agents despite rigorous donor screening. Clinicians should monitor patients closely for signs of respiratory distress, hypotension, or unexpected bleeding during and after infusion.

Lg-Octaplas is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to human plasma proteins or any of the product’s excipients. It should also be avoided in patients with a history of severe anaphylactic reactions to plasma‑derived therapies, and used with caution in those with uncontrolled volume overload, severe cardiac or renal failure, unless the clinical benefit justifies the risk.
