Eptigrilin 20mg Injection

Eptigrilin 20mg Injection belongs to the group of medicines called 'antiplatelet agents' used to prevent the formation of blood clots, thereby reducing the chance of Myocardial infarction. Eptigrilin 20mg Injection is used in the treatment of Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in both patients who need to be managed medically and also people undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures. ACS is defined as a group of serious cardiac conditions wherein the blood flow to the heart decreases due to plaque formation. Eptigrilin 20mg Injection is also used in the treatment of patients undergoing urgent PCI procedures and also in patients undergoing intracoronary stenting.

Eptigrilin 20mg Injection contains Eptifibatide, which belongs to the monoclonal anti-glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antibodies class. It works by blocking the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor's activity, thereby preventing platelet aggregation. This causes inhibition of fibrinogen binding, reducing the chance of blood clot formation. Eptigrilin 20mg Injection reduces the risk of cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction (heart attack).

Eptigrilin 20mg Injection may cause certain side effects, such as bleeding, nausea, headache, abdominal pain, hypotension, vomiting, dizziness, decreased platelet count, and pain at the site of injection. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor. A trained healthcare professional will administer Eptigrilin 20mg Injection. So, do not self-administer. Your doctor will decide the dose of the medicine based on your health condition.
