The invention relates to medicine, namely, to the solutions used for hemostasis. The hemostatic agent, which represents a polyammonia methanediamine chloride of the general formula

##STR00001##

where: n=1-20, m=1-10, at that n×m≧8.

The hemostatic agent may be applied in the form of a 0.01-10% aqueous solution. An aqueous solution of the preparation can be used for impregnation of materials used for bleeding arrest, suture material, bandaging material. The hemostatic agent may be used in the composition of a retraction cord, adhesive pastes, vaginal and rectal suppositories, creams, gels, as well as used with microchips that provide slow release of the preparation. The preparation can also be used in eye drops, eye ointments, and lubricants applied to the surface of the catheter. The drug can be used in endodontic treatment, may be injected into a polymer sealer for root canal obturation, as well as locally—by means of electrophoresis. The hemostatic agent may be used in conjunction with a gel based on aluminum sulphate or silver solution, and also with a polysaccharide haemostatic system. An efficient haemostatic preparation ensuring a significant analgetic effect is developed.

Provided are a method for efficiently manufacturing a nitrogen-containing compound, which is used for manufacturing a treatment agent for integrin-related diseases, or a salt thereof and a manufacturing intermediate of the compound or a salt thereof.

A method for manufacturing a novel nitrogen-containing compound or a salt thereof includes (1) a step of obtaining a compound represented by Formula [10] or a salt thereof through an amidation reaction; and (2) a step of deprotecting the compound represented by Formula [10] or a salt thereof.
