for blood volume lost by patients suffering from the effects of trauma, surgery
or certain medical conditions which result in hypovolaemia (lower than normal
blood volume).
Volplex has expanded its international franchise over the last few months,
gaining regulatory approval in Argentina in December 2003 where it will shortly
be launched. Maelor has established partners in South Africa and Bangladesh
(where regulatory applications have already been submitted) and also in
Australia in preparation for future launches in those markets.
