A method is described herein for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The method comprises inserting into an aneurysm an embolism coil coated with a polymeric coating comprising a genipin, such as genipin or a derivative thereof, thereby increasing the stability of clots within the aneurysm. According to one example, the coating is a poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) is used to release genipin to crosslink fibrin clots thereby creating more stable occlusions. Increased clotting can improve segregation of the weakened portion of the blood vessel from the rest of the vasculature and reduce the risk of recurrence.

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.
