Hemangeol Treatment for Proliferating Infantile Hemangioma

Hemangeol, also known as propranolol hydrochloride, is given as an oral solution 4.28 mg/mL to children starting from the age of five weeks. This type of medical therapy typically continues until the patient reaches five months. Dr. Levitin will adjust treatment age for premature babies and those that weight less than 2kg. You can rely on Dr. Levitin’s experience and specialist knowledge of vascular birthmark conditions when seeking effective treatment for an infantile hemangioma in New York.

Hemangeol is delivered with a graduated syringe that is specifically designed for administering Hemangeol. Dr. Levitin can instruct caregivers on the administration of Hemangeol in order to optimize results. It is recommended that Hemangeol is given at feeding time or immediately after.
