Stimate Nasl

Stimate Nasl Uses

This medication is used to control bleeding due to surgery, injuries, or menstrual periods in patients with certain diseases (e.g., hemophilia A, type 1 von Willebrand disease). It is a man-made form of a certain natural hormone made by the body (vasopressin) that causes the release of substances in your body that help blood clotting.
