USE OF A MAST CELL ACTIVATION OR DEGRANULATION BLOCKING AGENT IN THE MANUFACTURE OF A MEDICAMENT FOR THE TREATMENT OF A PATIENT SUBJECTED TO THROMBOLYSES

摘要

The invention concerns the use of a mast cell activation- or degranulation-blocking agent in the manufacture of a medicament for preventing and treating cerebral complications caused by thrombolytic treatment. The invention also relates to treatment of patients suffering from cerebral complications associated with thrombolysis. Further, the invention provides thrombolytic compositions comprising a mast cell degranulation-blocking and/or mast cell activation-blocking agent present in a therapeutically effective amount to prevent or reduce any cerebral complications caused by the active thrombolytic component.
