Amicar Elixir is a medication that is for those patients whose blood continues to flow out. Their blood does not clot like it should. Whenever you get a cut, the wound will start to bleed, but it doesn’t bleed forever. Instead the blood knows that it should clot.

That causes the blood to stop flowing out of you. In some cases, the patient’s body does not allow blood clotting, so medication needs to be taken in case the patient gets hurt and bleeds.

The bleeding will stop. If a nurse administers four grams of the Amicar Elixir and the bottle is labeled for two hundred and fifty milligrams per one milligram, then the patient should be administered with sixteen milliliters of the medication.
