  • Title: Tolerance and complications in a multicenter trial of intravenous APSAC and intracoronary streptokinase in acute myocardial infarction.
    Author: Rothbard RL, Anderson JL, Fitzpatrick PG, Hakworthy RA, Sorensen SG, Marder VJ.
    Journal: Clin Cardiol; 1990 Mar; Suppl 5():V11-4; discussion V27-32. PubMed ID: 2182234.
    Abstract:
    Adverse events data of a randomized, multicenter, angiographically controlled trial of intracoronary streptokinase and intravenous anistreplase, or anisoylated plasminogen streptokinase activator complex (APSAC) are presented. The frequency of severe adverse events is similar for streptokinase and anistreplase; no unexpected adverse experiences were reported with either drug. The most frequently encountered side effect was bleeding, overwhelmingly from the groin puncture site from angiography.
