What is Tnkase?

Tnkase (tenecteplase) is a prescription injection that dissolves blood clots in patients who are having a heart attack (acute myocardial infarction).

An acute myocardial infarction happens when arterial blood flow to the heart is blocked or slowed, usually by a blood clot. The patient will be immediately injected with blood thinners. Tnkase is also immediately injected to dissolve the blood clot.

Tnkase attaches to the fibers that glue together blood clots and begins a process that breaks down the fibers.

Tnkase is administered by a healthcare professional to patients with an acute myocardial infection as soon as possible. Tnkase is not sold to patients in consumer pharmacies.

What are the side effects of Tnkase?

Tnkase breaks apart blood clots, so the most common side effects of Tnkase are bleeding problems that could be serious and even fatal: internal bleeding in the brain, digestive system, urinary system, reproductive system, lungs, and from any surgical wounds or needle punctures. Other common physical side effects include but are not limited to nausea, dizziness, and pancreas problems. Some patients will show allergic reactions. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. Your physician should be able to address all your concerns about side effects before you take Tnkase.
