Bismuth subgallate (CAT: I015315) is a hemostatic agent that plays a role in promoting blood clotting. It acts by targeting coagulation factor XII, also known as the Hageman factor, which is involved in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. By interacting with factor XII, bismuth subgallate stimulates the activation of the coagulation pathway, facilitating the early formation of a fibrin clot. This mechanism of action makes it effective in controlling bleeding and promoting hemostasis in various clinical settings. Bismuth subgallate is commonly used in surgical procedures, dental applications, and other situations where hemostasis is required.
