Feiba VH Immuno is used in people who have hemophilia and have developed antibodies to clotting factor medications.

Hemophilia, an inherited blood-clotting disorder, is often treated with medicines containing clotting factors that help control bleeding. When the body develops antibodies or "inhibitors" to the clotting factor, this treatment becomes less effective in preventing bleeding episodes. Feiba VH Immuno works by bypassing the effects of these inhibitors to improve blood clotting and decrease the risk of bleeding.

Feiba VH Immuno is used to treat or prevent bleeding episodes in people with hemophilia A or B who have developed inhibitors. Feiba VH Immuno is also used to control bleeding related to surgery in people with hemophilia and inhibitors. This medicine is not for treating bleeding episodes in people who do not have inhibitors.

Kariva is a combination birth control pill containing female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). Kariva also causes changes in your cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.

Kariva is used to prevent pregnancy. There are many brands of this medicine available. Not all brands are listed on this leaflet.
