For anyone seeking a “timeout” from Holiday Shopping, wrapping gifts, baking seasonal pies, or singing yet another Yuletide Carole, this article seeks to bless you with Holiday wisdom about Albumin for humans.
Without any further adieu ... on with our Holiday Cheer and ‘Ode to Albumin’.
What is Albumin?
Albumin is a protein produced by the liver that circulates in plasma, or the clear liquid portion of your blood. Medicinal albumin is made of plasma proteins from human blood and works by increasing plasma volume or levels of albumin in the blood.
Albumin is used to replace blood volume loss resulting from trauma such as a severe burns or an injury that causes blood loss. It is also used to treat low albumin levels caused by surgery, dialysis, abdominal infections, liver failure, pancreatitis, respiratory distress, bypass surgery, and other many other conditions.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before receiving Albumin?
You should not use albumin if you are allergic to it, or if you have:
• severe anemia (lack of red blood cells); or
• severe heart failure.
Before you receive albumin, tell your doctor if you have:
• anemia;
• heart disease, high blood pressure;
• bleeding or blood clotting disorder such as hemophilia;
• lung problems;
• kidney disease;
• a latex allergy; or
• if you are unable to urinate.
In an emergency situation it may not be possible to tell your caregivers about your health conditions.
Make sure any doctor caring for you afterward knows you have received this medicine.
Albumin is made from human plasma (part of the blood) which may contain viruses and other infectious agents. Donated plasma is tested and treated to reduce the risk of it containing infectious agents, but there is still a small possibility it could transmit disease. Talk with your doctor about the risks and benefits of using this medication.
How is albumin given?
Albumin is injected into a vein through an IV. A healthcare provider will give you this injection.
Your breathing, pulse, blood pressure, electrolyte levels, kidney function, and other vital signs will be watched closely while you are receiving albumin. Your blood will also need to be tested regularly during treatment. Drink plenty of liquids while you are being treated with albumin.
What are the possible side effects of albumin?
Common side effects may include:
• nausea, vomiting;
• fever, chills;
• fast heart rate;
• mild rash; or
• flushing (warmth, redness, or tingly feeling).
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about all side effects.
As holds true with taking any medication, get emergency medical help if after taking Albumin you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; cough, difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Also, always immediately tell your caregiver right away if you have:
• a light-headed feeling, like you might pass out;
• weak or shallow breathing;
• throbbing headache, blurred vision, buzzing in your ears;
• anxiety, confusion, sweating, pale skin; or
• severe shortness of breath, wheezing, gasping for breath, cough with foamy mucus, chest pain, and fast or uneven heart rate.
