Anticoagulant
|
Heparin
Unfractionated Heparin Low molecular weight Heparin Fondaparinux Warfarin |
Used to recover flow
Heparin is used as IV bolus, potentiates antithrombin III, reversed by protamine (acidic, neutralizes heparin) Unfractionated is the least specific. LMWH and Fondaparinus are more specific, for LMWH anti Xa levels are checked. Warfarin is NOT acute, has half life of 3-5 days and should not be given as loading dose. Reversed by giving vit K. |

Thrombolytics
|
Streptokinase
Alteplase Reteplase Tenectaplase |
Streptokinas and alteplase are prototypic, all turn plasminogen to plasmin and have a short half life. Absolute contraindication in surgery within 10 days, serious GI bleed in last 3 months, active bleeding, CVA in past 3 months, aortic dissection, acute pericarditis. Relative contraindication with acute HTN, and age over 75.

ADP antagonists
|
Ticlopidine, clopidogrel, prasugrel
|
block ADP, by suppressing platelet activation, used to prevent a second MI, benefit to TIA and stroke patients. Used in Angioplasty and coronary stent procedures.
|
|
GPIIb/IIIa blocker
|
abciximab
|
blocks sruface receptor for cell-cell interaction in platelets. Used mostly in cath labs.
