Telyse 40Mg Inj belongs to the class of drugs called thrombolytics (clot-busting drugs) indicated to reduce the risk of death in people who have had a serious type of heart attack known as acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Heart attack refers to blocked blood flow to the heart due to blockage of arteries. STEMI is a type of serious heart attack that mainly affects the lower chambers of the heart.
Telyse 40Mg Inj contains Tenecteplase, a clot-busting drug that helps to dissolve unwanted blood clots in the blood vessels of the heart. Thus, it helps to prevent damage caused by heart attack.
