Capnea Injection – Support for Premature Infant Breathing
Capnea Injection is a prescription medication designed to manage apnea of prematurity, a condition where premature infants experience repeated pauses in breathing. By stimulating the brain’s respiratory centers, it helps normalize breathing patterns, ensuring the newborn can breathe more consistently and effectively.
Key Benefits
-
Supports Breathing in Premature Infants: Reduces interruptions in breathing caused by underdeveloped respiratory control.
-
Stimulates Respiratory Centers: Promotes steady, regular breathing by activating specific areas of the brain.
-
Professional Administration: Delivered under the supervision of qualified healthcare professionals for safe and accurate dosing.
-
Enhances Oxygen Flow: Helps premature babies maintain proper oxygen levels and overall comfort.
How Capnea Injection Works
Capnea Injection acts as a stimulant, blocking certain natural substances such as adenosine and phosphodiesterase. This action enhances brain activity and respiratory function, reducing apnea episodes and encouraging spontaneous breathing in premature newborns.
How It Is Administered
This medication is given as an injection by a trained doctor or nurse. Self-administration is not recommended. Close medical supervision ensures correct dosing and monitoring of the infant’s response.
