How Does NovoSeven® RT Work?
NovoSeven® RT works the same way as NovoSeven®, which is why it’s as effective and safe for stopping bleeds quickly and safely. There are 13 factors in the clotting process. Clotting happens when each factor works together in the right order. The clotting process can be slowed or stopped if one factor is blocked or missing. In order for a stable clot to form, the deficient factor in the blood-clotting process must be replaced or bypassed.

For people with FVII deficiency, NovoSeven® RT is used to replace the missing factor, so the clotting process can continue.
