About Tirocip Injection

Tirocip Injection belongs to a class of medicines called 'antiplatelets' (blood thinners) used to prevent blood clots. It helps to prevent heart attack and chest pain. It is intended for use with unfractionated heparin and aspirin. A blood clot is a clump of blood that has changed from a liquid to a gel-like or semisolid state. Blood clots are formed to stop bleeding that occurs due to tissue injury. Though blood clots are useful for stopping bleeding, they are harmful when abnormally formed within blood vessels as they block blood vessels and inhibit blood flow to essential organs such as the brain, heart, or lungs.

Tirocip Injection contains Tirofiban, a platelet aggregation inhibitor which works by preventing platelets (blood cells) from sticking together to form blood clots. Thus, it prevents blood clot formation.

Tirocip Injection will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Sometimes, Tirocip Injection may cause common side effects such as bleeding under the skin at the site of injection or into a muscle causing swelling, bleeding after surgery, invisible blood in stool or urine, headache or feeling sick. Most of these side effects of Tirocip Injection do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Tirofiban or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Tirocip Injection is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness were not established. If you are a pregnant or breastfeeding woman, inform your doctor before receiving Tirocip Injection . Avoid alcohol consumption with Tirocip Injection as it may increase the risk of bleeding in the stomach or intestines. If you have a history of stroke or bleeding internally within the last 30 days, avoid receiving Tirocip Injection .
