Streptokinase:
Is a protein secreted by several
streptococci, it can bind &
activate human plasminogen to
convert to plasmin.
: Generic name
.Streptokinase
: Therapeutic class
.Thrombolytic enzyme
: Pharmacologic class
. Tissue Plasminogen Activator
Pharmacology:
Converts plasminogen to the enzyme
plasmin, which aids in dissolution of
blood clots.
:Available forms
The only available form is powder.
:Administration
.
IV ( intravenous route )-1
.IC ( intracoronary route )-2
:Action
Dissolve clot that have formed in blood
.vessels
Storage/Stability:
Store unopened vials at controlled room
temperature (59 to 86F). Use
reconstituted solution immediately or
within 8 h if stored at
36 to 46F. Discard any unused
Pharmacokinetics
Metabolism:
No metabolites identified.
Elimination:
Streptokinase is cleared by the liver.
The half life is approximately 23 .
. AMI- 1
lysis of intracoronary thrombi improvement of
ventricular function, and reduction of mortality
associated with acute MI; reduction of infarct size and
.CHF associated with acute MI
.
Pulmonary Embolism-2
.DVT-3
acute, extensive thrombi of the deep veins (eg, those
involving the popliteal vessels); lysis of acute arterial
thrombi and emboli; alternative to surgical revision for
clearing totally or partially occluded arteriovenous
cannula when acceptable flow cannot be achieved.
Acute MI (Adults):
IV infusion Administer ASAP after symptom onset
(greatest benefit when administered within 4 h, but
benefit has been reported up to 24 h). Infuse a total
dose of 1,500,000 units within 60 min.
Intracoronary infusion Administer 20,000 units by
bolus followed by 2000 units/min for 60 min (total
dose, 140,000 units).
