Overview Retolon Injection

Retolon Injection treats life-threatening bleeding from enlarged veins in the esophagus (the tube connecting your mouth and stomach), medically termed esophageal varices. This injection constricts blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the affected area. Administration is strictly by a healthcare professional; self-injection is dangerous and prohibited. Dosage and frequency are determined solely by your physician, and treatment is reserved for patients with severe esophageal bleeding. Potential side effects include headache, bradycardia (slow heart rate), hypertension (high blood pressure), peripheral vasoconstriction, and peripheral ischemia or hypotension (low blood pressure). Report any persistent or worsening side effects to your doctor immediately. Prior to treatment, disclose any pre-existing heart, liver, or kidney conditions, as well as all other medications you are currently using. This injection is not suitable for pediatric or adolescent patients.
