STREPTASE® Hoechst Marion Roussel Streptokinase Fibrinolytic Agent Action and Clinical Pharmacology: Streptokinase acts with plasminogen (or plasmin) to produce an “activator complex” that converts residual plasminogen into the proteolytic enzyme, plasmin. Plasmin is capable of hydrolysing fibrin into polypeptides; it also hydrolyses fibrinogen and other plasma proteins. Since plasminogen is present in the thrombus/embolus, activation by streptokinase occurs within the thrombus/embolus as well as on its surface.: The activity of…

Tretinoin itself is known to have an irritant and keratolytic effect on the skin. These two actions which occur simultaneously have been shown histologically…

STILAMIN® Serono Somatostatin Treatment of Acute Variceal Bleeding Action and Clinical Somatostatin is a synthetic cyclic 14 amino acid peptide (identical in structure and activity to naturally occurring somatostatin) which decreases splanchnic blood flow and portal venous pressure in man, possibly through a direct action on the unstriated muscle cells mediated by a calcium-dependent mechanism. In anesthetized healthy volunteers, somatostatin–dosed as a 250 g i.v. bolus followed by a 250…

STEMETIL® Rhône-Poulenc Rorer Prochlorperazine Antipsychotic–Antiemetic Action and Clinical Prochlorperazine is a piperazine phenothiazine derivative with antipsychotic, antiemetic and weak sedative activity. Prochlorperazine has actions similar to those of other phenothiazine derivatives but appears to be less sedating and to have a weak propensity for causing hypotension or potentiating the effects of CNS depressants and anesthetics. However, it produces a high incidence of extrapyramidal reactions. Prochlorperazine is well absorbed from the…
