MONITOR CLOSELY: Drugs that inhibit platelet function may increase the risk of bleeding when administered prior to, during, or after thrombolytic therapy.
MANAGEMENT: Careful monitoring for signs of bleeding, particularly at arterial puncture wounds, is recommended when thrombolytics are used concurrently or sequentially with antiplatelet agents. Some authorities recommend avoiding the initiation of platelet aggregation inhibitors within the first 24 hours following thrombolysis treatment. Local guidelines and prescribing information for individual thrombolytic drugs should be consulted for further recommendations.
