Adverse Reactions
As with other thrombolytic agents, haemorrhage is the most common adverse reaction associated with the use of Metalyse. Haemorrhage at any site or body cavity can occur and may result in life-threatening situations, permanent disability or death.
The type of haemorrhage associated with thrombolytic therapy can be divided into two broad categories: superficial bleeding, normally from injection sites; internal bleeding at any site or body cavity.
With intracranial haemorrhage neurological symptoms such as somnolence, aphasia, hemiparesis, convulsion may be associated.
Except for the occurrence of ADR reperfusion arrhythmias in the indication acute myocardial infarction and the frequency of ADR intracranial haemorrhage in the indication acute ischaemic stroke, the safety profile of Metalyse in the indication acute ischaemic stroke and acute myocardial infarction is regarded similar based on the outcome demonstrated by published academic clinical randomised trials and Real World Evidence (RWE) data.
