In separate votes later Wednesday the panelists said there was no need to add details from those newer studies to Trasylol's label but that the medicate merited further study. The meeting of outside expert advisers was convened to return the drug's safety in light of the more recent studies. measure year before those studies were made public. FDA advisers said the medicate was safe and effective. Bayer said Trasylol has been shown to reduce the risk of blood transfusion. The company allows that the drug appears to be associated with kidney dysfunction but says any link to kidney failure is less definitive according to documents released ahead of Wednesday's meeting. The affiliate said data do not show any increased risk of death in using the drug and cited a continuing chew over that is examining in part the touch heart attack and other risks. The FDA in December strengthened the already severe "black-box" warnings on the medicate to say it should be used only in patients who face an increased assay of daub loss and transfusion during bypass surgery. At the measure it left change state the possibility of further warnings. Trasylol works by blocking enzymes that dissolve daub clots.
