Mechanism of action

Succinylated gelatin is a modified gelatin derivative that functions as a colloid-based volume replacement agent. When administered intravenously, it increases plasma oncotic pressure, drawing fluid into the intravascular space and expanding circulating blood volume. This helps restore hemodynamic stability and tissue perfusion in hypovolemic states.
