Product Introduction
Tenecterel 30mg Injection is an antiplatelet agent containing the active ingredient Tenecteplase. It is used to prevent blood clots in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), including unstable angina or myocardial infarction (heart attack). This drug is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to other ingredients in the formulation. If you are scheduled for surgery (including dental work), it is important to inform your doctor. Due to the increased risk of bleeding associated with this drug, your physician may advise you to stop taking the medication five days prior to the surgery. If you develop irregular breathing patterns such as speeding up, slowing down, or experiencing short pauses in breathing, it is recommended to consult your doctor for further evaluation. Tenecterel 30mg Injection is not recommended during pregnancy or if there is a possibility of becoming pregnant. It is advised for women to use appropriate contraceptive measures to prevent pregnancy while using this medication. If you are breastfeeding, it is important to consult with your physician before taking this drug.
Uses
Prevent blood clots in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS)
How it works
Tenecteplase works by inhibiting platelet activation and aggregation. It specifically blocks a receptor called P2Y12 on the platelets, preventing them from clumping together and forming blood clots. This helps reduce the risk of heart-related events in individuals with ACS.
How to Use
Take the Tenecterel 30mg Injection as advised by your physician. Do not crush, chew, or open the medicine. Your physician will decide the correct dosage and duration based on age, body weight, and disease condition. Only stop taking the tablet if your doctor advises you to stop.
Side Effects

Expert Tips
