  1. Package contents and additional information

1. What is Urokinase Syner Medica and what is it used for

This medication is called Urokinase Syner Medica. The active ingredient is urokinase, an enzyme extracted from human urine that can act as a thrombolytic. This means that it can help dissolve blood clots that can form in:

  • Catheters or intravenous cannulas (surgical tubes used to remove fluids or introduce fluids into the body)
  • Lungs
  • Deep veins
  • Peripheral arteries (blood vessels away from the heart, such as in the legs).

2. What you need to know before starting to use Urokinase Syner Medica

Do not useUrokinase Syner Medica

  • if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to urokinase or to any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • if you have a bleeding in the stomach or intestines, or have had one recently
  • if you have any type of cancer with a risk of bleeding
  • if you have undergone major surgery or have had a stroke recently
  • if you have suffered a recent trauma, such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation or thoracic or cerebral surgery (e.g., in the last 2 months)
  • if you have very high blood pressure
  • if you have abnormal blood coagulation or a very low platelet count
  • if you have vascular malformations, such as an aneurysm
  • if you have an infection in the pancreas or heart, or any other severe infection
  • if you have severe liver or kidney failure
  • if you have recently given birth.

Warnings and precautions

Due to the increased risk of bleeding, special precautions will be taken with Urokinase Syner Medica if:

  • you have a severe vascular disease, especially in the brain
  • you have a high risk of blood clot formation in the heart cavities, for example, in the case of abnormal heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation)
  • you have coagulation disorders, including those due to severe nephropathy or hepatopathy
  • you have cavities in the lungs
  • you have urinary tract problems that could lead to bleeding (e.g., a urinary catheter)
  • you have obstructed and infected blood vessels.
  • you are elderly, especially if you are over 75 years old.

In all these circumstances, your doctor will decide whether or not to administer Urokinase Syner Medica.

If a severe bleeding occurs during treatment, Urokinase Syner Medica will be discontinued and you will be given medications to control the bleeding.

Urokinase Syner Medica is manufactured from human urine; certain measures are taken to prevent the transmission of infections to patients. However, despite these measures, when medications manufactured from human urine are administered, the possibility of transmitting an infection cannot be completely ruled out.

Use ofUrokinase Syner Medicawithother medications

Tell your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken any of the following medications, as the likelihood of bleeding may be increased by medications that counteract blood coagulation, such as:

  • heparin or other anticoagulants
  • acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
  • dipyridamole, dextran (used to treat decreased plasma blood volume)

Tell your doctor if you are taking an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor (used to treat high blood pressure), as it may increase the likelihood of an allergic reaction.

Tell your doctor if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medication.

Use in children

Urokinase Syner Medica can be used in children to dissolve blood clots in intravenous catheters or cannulas.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor before using this medication.

Urokinase Syner Medica should not be used during pregnancy or immediately after childbirth unless your doctor recommends otherwise.

You should not breastfeed your child while being treated with Urokinase Syner Medica.

Excipients

This medication contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per vial, which is essentially "sodium-free".

3. How to use Urokinase Syner Medica

Urokinase Syner Medica will be administered to you by a doctor or nurse.

Before administering Urokinase Syner Medica, it will be dissolved in a saline solution (salt and water solution). It should never be injected into a muscle or under the skin. The doctor will decide the amount and duration of treatment with Urokinase Syner Medica.

If you are being treated for:

A blocked intravascular catheter or cannula

Urokinase may be injected at a concentration of 5,000 to 25,000 U.I. per ml directly into the catheter or cannula and wait between 20 and 60 minutes before removing the liquid. This can be repeated several times if necessary. Up to 250,000 U.I. of Urokinase Syner Medica can also be infused through a solution with 1,000-2,500 units per ml in the blocked tube over a period of 90 to 180 minutes.

Blood clots that block deep veins in the limbs

Initially, you may be given 4,400 U.I. of urokinase per kg of body weight in 15 ml of solvent through an intravenous injection over a period of 10 minutes. Then, you will be given 4,400 U.I./kg/hour for 12-24 hours.

Blood clots that block pulmonary vessels

Initially, you may be given 4,400 U.I. of urokinase per kg of body weight in 15 ml of solvent through an intravenous injection over a period of 10 minutes. Then, you will be given 4,400 U.I./kg/hour for 12 hours. Alternatively, your doctor may choose to administer three injections into the pulmonary artery at 24-hour intervals.

Blood clots that block an artery

Initially, you may be given a solution of 2,000 U.I. per ml directly into the clot, at a rate of 4,000 U.I. per minute for 2 hours. The doctor will check the obstruction and may repeat this treatment up to 4 times until the clot is dissolved.
