Product Introduction:
Streptokinase, which is found in Icikinase injection, belongs to the class of medications known as anti-thrombotic drugs. It is used to dissolve blood clots that develop in blood arteries. It lowers the risk of heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lungs), deep vein thrombosis (blood clot in the blood veins feeding the legs), and arterial thrombosis (blood clot in arteries) by dissolving blood clots.
It can also be used to unblock blockages (occlusions) in arteriovenous cannulae (blood circulation devices) as an alternative to surgical intervention when satisfactory flow cannot be attained otherwise.
Some persons should use this medication with caution. Inform your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or cardiac problems before receiving Icikinase injection. As a precaution, you should also notify your doctor if you have any bleeding or blood clotting issues, a stroke, stomach inflammation, or any internal illnesses that can promote bleeding, or if you have just undergone surgery. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or nursing, as well as any other medications you are taking on a regular basis.
Injection of recombinant streptokinase may result in injection site hemorrhage, nausea, allergic reaction, and a drop in blood pressure. It may also raise your chances of bleeding. Your doctor will explain the benefits and hazards connected with icikinase before it is taken. Even after the icikinase injection, you should continue to take all of your other medications as prescribed by your doctor for long-term treatment.
