S-Kinase Injection 1.5 Million Unit/Vial contains Streptokinase, a thrombolytic (clot-busting) medicine used in emergency cardiovascular conditions. It is primarily used to dissolve blood clots that block blood flow in vital organs such as the heart and lungs. This injection is typically administered in hospital settings under strict medical supervision due to its high-risk and life-saving nature.

Composition

Each vial contains:

• Streptokinase 1.5 million IU

Indications

S-Kinase Injection is indicated for the emergency management of:

• Acute myocardial infarction (heart attack)
• Pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lungs)
• Deep vein thrombosis (in selected cases)
• Arterial thromboembolism
• Occluded intravenous or arterial catheters (as directed by physician)

Mechanism of Action

Streptokinase is a thrombolytic agent that works by activating plasminogen to form plasmin. Plasmin is an enzyme responsible for breaking down fibrin, the main structural component of blood clots. By dissolving fibrin, S-Kinase helps restore normal blood flow to affected organs, reducing tissue damage and improving survival in acute thrombotic conditions.
