How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Dehydrated Alcohol). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Dehydrated alcohol is a tissue toxin that produces a myocardial infarction when injected through an intra-arterial catheter into a target septal vessel, which causes the hypertrophied septum to thin.
