    • Patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), advanced atherosclerotic disease, crush injury, septicemia, or concomitant treatment with activated or nonactivated prothrombin complex concentrates (aPCCs/PCCs) may have a potential risk of developing thrombotic events in association with NovoSeven® treatment.
    • Use with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to NovoSeven®, its components, or mouse, hamster, or bovine proteins.
    • Serious adverse events that may or may not have been related to the use of NovoSeven® in acquired hemophilia (10 of 139 patients in the compassionate use program, HTRS registry, and the published literature) included thrombotic serious adverse events and death.
    • Serious adverse events that may or may not have been related to the use of NovoSeven® occurred in 14 of 298 patients with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors in the initial clinical program.
    • Development of antibodies against FVII has been reported in FVII-deficient patients after treatment with NovoSeven®. These patients had previously been treated with human plasma and/or plasma-derived FVII.
    • Concomitant use of NovoSeven® RT with other formulations of NovoSeven® is not recommended due to potential dosing errors based on different concentrations.
    • The effect of prolonged post-hemostatic dosing of NovoSeven® RT has not been extensively studied in a clinical setting.
