  1. Topical Hemostatic adjuncts: absorbable getatin (Gelfoam); oxidized cellulose (Surgicel); microfibrillar bovine collagen (Avitene); topical thrombin preparations; antibibrinolytics (Amicar – less likely to be used)

  2. Astringents: Ferric sulfate (Astringedent); Aluminum chloride (Hemodent); Aluminum potassium sulfate (generic); Aluminum sulfate (Gel-Cord)

  3. Vasoconstrictor: Epinephrine (Adrenalin)… this is effective, but will wear off quickly.
