An antihemorrhagic (British English: antihaemorrhagic) agent is a substance that promotes hemostasis (a process which stops bleeding). It may also be known as a hemostatic (also spelled haemostatic) agent.
Antihemorrhagic agents used in medicine have various mechanisms of action:
Systemic drugs work by inhibiting fibrinolysis or promoting coagulation.
Locally acting hemostatic agents work by causing vasoconstriction or promoting platelet aggregation.
