KABIKINASE VIAL

KABIKINASE VIAL Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

KABIKINASE VIAL forms a complex with plasminogen which then converts plasminogen to plasmin. Plasmin breaks down clots as well as fibrinogen and other plasma proteins.

KABIKINASE VIAL creates an active complex which promotes the cleavage of the Arg/Val bond in plasminogen to form the proteolytic enzyme plasmin. Plasmin in turn degrades the fibrin matrix of the thrombus, thereby exerting its thrombolytic action. This helps eliminate blood clots or arterial blockages that cause myocardial infarction.

Uses

KABIKINASE VIAL is used for use in the management of acute myocardial infarction, for the lysis of intracoronary thrombi, for the improvement of ventricular function, and reduction of mortality when administered by either the intravenous or intracoronary route. Earlier administration of streptokinase is correlated with greater clinical benefit, the greatest benefit (in terms of mortality reduction) being seen when Streptase is administered within the first 4 hours after onset of symptoms. The treatment should always commence within 6 hours of the onset of pain.

KABIKINASE VIAL is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), Acute massive pulmonary embolism, Arterial Thromboembolism, Arterial thrombosis, Arteriovenous fistula occlusion, Arteriovenous fistula thrombosis, Arteriovenous occlusions, Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO), Chronic Occlusive Arterial Disease, Deep Vein Thrombosis, Peripheral artery thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism, Pulmonary Thromboembolism, Acute Arterial Thromboembolism

How KABIKINASE VIAL works

Plasminogen is an inactive molecule that becomes activated to plasmin when the Arg/Val bond is cleaved. Plasmin breaks down fibrin clots created by the blood clotting cascade. KABIKINASE VIAL forms a highly specific 1:1 enzymatic complex with plasminogen which converts inactive plasminogen molecules into active plasmin. Plasmin degrades fibrin clots as well as fibrinogen and other plasma proteins. This in turn leads to the degradation of blood clots.

The protein nature and lyophilized form of KABIKINASE VIAL, require careful reconstitution and dilution. The following reconstitution and dilution procedures are recommended for vials & infusion bottles:

  • Slowly add 5 mL Sodium Chloride Injection or 5% Dextrose Injection to the KABIKINASE VIAL vial directing the diluent at the side of the vacuum-packed vial rather than into the drug powder.
  • Roll and tilt the vial gently to reconstitute. Avoid shaking. (Shaking may cause foaming.) (If necessary, total volume may be increased to a maximum of 50 mL in plastic containers and the infusion pump rate should be adjusted. To facilitate setting the infusion pump rate, a total volume of 45 mL, or a multiple thereof, is recommended.
  • Withdraw the entire reconstituted contents of the vial; slowly and carefully dilute further to a total volume as recommended. Avoid shaking and agitation on dilution.
  • When diluting the 1 500 000 IU infusion bottle (50 mL), slowly add 5 mL Sodium Chloride Injection or 5% Dextrose Injection, directing it at the side of the bottle rather than into the drug powder. Roll and tilt the bottle gently to reconstitute. Avoid shaking as it may cause foaming. Add an additional 40 mL of diluent to the bottle, avoiding shaking and agitation. (Total volume = 45 mL). Now administer by infusion pump.
  • Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. (Human albumin may impart a slightly yellow color to the solution)
  • As KABIKINASE VIAL contains no preservatives, it should be reconstituted immediately before use. The solution may be used for direct intravenous administration within eight hours following reconstitution if stored at 2-8° C
  • Do not add other medication to the container of KABIKINASE VIAL.
  • Unused reconstituted drug should be discarded.

Side Effects

The following adverse reactions are based on experience from clinical trials and on post marketing experience of KABIKINASE VIAL.

General disorders:

  • Common: Headache and back pain, muscle pain (including myalgia), chills and/or fever as well as asthenia/malaise.

Haemorrhage and bleeding:

  • Common: Haemorrhages at invaded or disturbed sites, including the injection site, and ecchymoses. Gastrointestinal or genitourinary bleedings (including aggravation of menstrual bleeding), epistaxis.
  • Uncommon: Intracranial haemorrhages with their complications and possible fatal outcome, retinal haemorrhages, severe haemorrhages (also with fatal outcome) including liver haemorrhages, retroperitoneal bleedings, splenic rupture. Blood transfusions are rarely required.

Immune system disorders:

  • Very common: Development of antistreptokinase antibodies
  • Common: Allergic-anaphylactic reactions such as rash, flushing, itching, urticaria, angioneurotic oedema, minor breathing difficulty, periorbital swelling, bronchospasm or hypotension.

Nervous system disorders:

  • Rare: Neurologic symptoms (e.g., dizziness, confusion, paralysis, hemiparesis, agitation or convulsion) in the context of cerebral haemorrhages or cardiovascular disorders with hypoperfusion of the brain.

Cardiac complication and vascular disorders:

  • Very common: Hypotension, heart rate and rhythm disorders, angina pectoris.
  • Common: Recurrent ischaemia, heart failure, reinfarction, cardiogenic shock, pericarditis, pulmonary oedema.
  • Uncommon: Cardiac arrest (leading to respiratory arrest), mitral insufficiency, pericardial effusion, cardiac tamponade, myocardial rupture, pulmonary or distal embolism.

Respiratory disorders:

  • Very rare: Non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema after intracoronary thrombolytic therapy in patients with extensive myocardial infarction.

Gastrointestinal disorders:

  • Common: Nausea, diarrhoea, epigastric pain and vomiting.

Precaution

Because of the increased likelihood of resistance, due to antistreptokinase antibodies, retreatment with KABIKINASE VIAL or KABIKINASE VIAL-containing products may not be effective if administered between five days and twelve months of prior KABIKINASE VIAL administration or Streptococcal infections, such as Streptococcal pharyngitis, acute rheumatic fever or acute glomerulonephritis secondary to a Streptococcal infection.

In principle, no thrombolytic treatment should be commenced before the 10th postoperative day. However, in cases of pulmonary embolism, the indication for earlier treatment may be very strong and after careful consideration of all the risks, KABIKINASE VIAL may be given before the tenth postoperative day. The danger of bleeding from the operative area must, of course, be taken into account.The danger of haemorrhage is increased by simultaneous or previous treatment with anticoagulants (e.g., Heparin) or substances which inhibit platelet formation or function. If the patient is under active heparinisation, it should be neutralised by the administration of protamine sulphate before the start of thrombolytic therapy.

Repeated Administration: After administration of KABIKINASE VIAL, the titre of antistreptokinase antibodies begins to rise after approximately one week, reaching a peak at 2 to 3 weeks and remains elevated for 8 to 12 months. Because of the increased likelihood of resistance, KABIKINASE VIAL may not be effective if given during this period.

Interaction

There is an increased risk of haemorrhage in patients simultaneously or previously receiving anticoagulants (such as Heparin or Coumarin derivatives) or drugs which inhibit platelet formation or function (e.g., Platelet aggregation inhibitors, Dextrans, Phenylbutazone, Dipyridamole, Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). The effect of Heparin can be neutralized rapidly by administration of Protamine Sulphate. The Thrombin time (TT) should not be more than twice the normal control value before thrombolytic therapy is started. In the case of prior treatment with coumarin derivatives, the International Normalized Ratio (INR) must be less than 1.3 before starting KABIKINASE VIAL infusion.

Combination of KABIKINASE VIAL with Aspirin for treatment of Myocardial infarction: Study showed a significant benefit to patients treated with these two agents after acute myocardial infarction. Mortality (both short and longer term) was reduced in these patients to a greater extent than in those treated with either agent alone.

Unless contraindicated, the concomitant use of Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA, Aspirin), starting prior to KABIKINASE VIAL infusion and continued for one month thereafter may be instituted at the discretion of the physician. The benefit of combination therapy should therefore be weighed against the risk of increased haemorrhage.

Anticoagulation treatment following KABIKINASE VIAL: Following high dose (1.5 million IU), short term treatment with KABIKINASE VIAL, for acute myocardial infarction, the use of subsequent anticoagulant treatment has not yet been shown to be of unequivocal benefit. Therefore, in this situation, the use of anticoagulants should be decided by the physician.

Food Interaction

  • Avoid herbs and supplements with anticoagulant/antiplatelet activity. Examples include garlic, ginger, bilberry, danshen, piracetam, and ginkgo biloba.
