Haemorrhagic disease

Coumarins are also synthesized by a variety of plant species. Medically, the most significant coumarins are dicoumarol and its derivative, warfarin. Dicoumarol was initially discovered as the active substance in mouldy sweet clover hay, which could induce haemorrhagic disease in cattle. Dicoumarol and warfarin are now used clinically as anticoagulants, as discussed in Chapter 9. [Pg.33]

The only major side-effect of these oral anticoagulants is prolonged bleeding, thus the dosage levels are chosen with care. Dicoumarol was first isolated from spoiled sweet clover hay, as the agent which promoted haemorrhage disease in cattle. Both dicoumarol and warfarin have also been utilized (at high doses) as rat poisons. [Pg.375]

Therapeutically, vitamin K is used in prophylaxis and treatment of deficiency of clotting factor due to dietary deficiency of vitamin K, chronic antimicrobial therapy, malabsorption syndrome, obstructive jaundice, liver diseases such as cirrhosis and hepatitis, in neonates to prevent or treat haemorrhagic disease of new born to counteract the overdosing of oral anticoagulants... [Pg.241]

Kernicterus can occur in small and premature babies, even after small doses of vitamin K, probably because of immature liver function. In its 1997 clinical practice guidelines, the Canadian Paediatric Society recommended that, in order to prevent haemorrhagic disease of the newborn, phytomenadione be given as a single intramuscular injection to all newborns within 6 hours of birth, in a dose of 1 mg for infants with a birth weight of more than 1500 g and half this dose for smaller infants. The dose is crucial, since overdosage carries a serious risk of kernicterus, especially in premature infants. There is only a remote possibility that this treatment might increase the risk of childhood cancer. [Pg.3681]

A small number of newborn infants have very low reserves of vitamin K and are at risk of potentially fatal haemorrhagic disease. It is therefore generally recommended that all neonates should be given a single prophylactic dose of vitamin K. [Pg.357]
