Article Synopsis
- Tenecteplase is a modified drug designed for treating acute ischemic stroke, potentially better than alteplase due to its higher specificity and longer effectiveness.
- This study analyzed multiple trials comparing the safety and efficacy of different doses of tenecteplase with alteplase in 291 stroke patients.
- Findings showed no major differences between the two drugs, but suggested that the 0.25 mg/kg dose of tenecteplase might offer better outcomes with less risk of bleeding compared to alteplase.
