Recombinant Streptokinase For Injection IP 15,00,000 IU (Icikinase)
How It Works
Recombinant Streptokinase is a thrombolytic medication used to dissolve blood clots that have formed within blood vessels. It works by converting plasminogen into plasmin, which is an enzyme that breaks down fibrin, the protein meshwork that forms the structure of blood clots. By promoting the breakdown of blood clots, recombinant streptokinase helps to restore blood flow in occluded vessels, reducing the risk of complications such as myocardial infarction or stroke.
