Podcast # 341: Tenecteplase vs. Alteplase
Author: Rachel Beham, PharmD
Educational Pearls:
- Tenecteplase is more specific for fibrin and has a longer half-life than alteplase.
- In setting of ischemic stroke, tenecteplase before thrombectomy was associated with a statistically higher incidence of reperfusion and better functional outcome than alteplase.
