"My son and I get Wilate whenever there is a potential for bleeding, surgery, dental, etc. Seems to work fine, but it’s given intravenously, so if we need a continued dose, it’s a trip to the infusion clinic or leave your IV in until necessary. For short bleeds and cuts, we take tranexamic acid orally."

"I had 2 C-sections and was given Humate-P prior to surgery and 10 days post-op. This medication is truly life-saving for those that have this incurable disorder. Very grateful and thankful for it!"

"It was given to me prior to and after my surgery for a total hysterectomy last year. It worked fantastic, and the use of it helped tremendously with my healing process thereafter. The surgeon was surprised that I had little to no bleeding from the site (the procedure was a vaginal hysterectomy) and no bleeding whatsoever post-surgery. I had a wonderful team of doctors and specialists on my side during the whole ordeal. Wonderful doctors who definitely did their research! You get a thumbs up here!"
