Caplin Steriles, a subsidiary of Chennai-based Caplin Point Laboratories Ltd, today announced that it has received final approval for its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) Carboprost Tromethamine Injection USP, 250 mcg/mL single-dose vials from the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA).
Carboprost Tromethamine is a generic therapeutic equivalent version of (RLD), HEMABATE Injection, of Pfizer Inc. Carboprost Tromethamine is used to treat severe bleeding after childbirth (postpartum). It is also used to produce an abortion by causing uterine contractions.
