The most common medication used for treatment of hemophilia would be a biologic called a Clotting Factor Protein. These proteins (some being derived from human blood, some produced recombinantly in a lab depending on the product) are injected directly into the blood stream.
Another medication that is used with more mild cases of hemophilia is DDAVP. This works as a hormone and causes stores of those same clotting factor proteins to be released into the bloodstream. DDAVP can be provided through an IV or in smaller amounts through a nasal spray.
