Hemlibra (emicizumab) is a monoclonal antibody that functions in place of a natural blood-clotting factor that is missing in people with hemophilia A. Emicizumab works as a "bridge" between other clotting factors to replace missing factor VIII.

Hemlibra is for adults and children with hemophilia A with or without factor VIII inhibitors. Hemlibra is used to help prevent bleeding episodes or make them occur less often.

Hemlibra will not stop a bleeding episode that has already begun.

Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that fights bacteria.

Minocycline mucous membrane powder is used together with certain dental procedures to treat periodontitis (gum disease). Periodontitis is an infection that causes inflammation in the gums around your teeth. This can cause the gums to pull away from the teeth, leaving deep pockets. Gum shrinkage can lead to tooth loss.

Minocycline powder may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
