Question: What is the difference between a "beta-blocker" and a "clot buster!?
Answers:
A beta-blocker is a medicine that limits the activity of a hormone called epinephrine!. Epinephrine increases blood pressure and heart rate!. So, beta-blockers work by limiting the activity of epinephrine, which, in turn, lowers your blood pressure and decreases your heart rate!.

Clot busters are thrombolytic agents that may be given if you are having a heart attack or an ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot)!. The term thrombolysis means to dissolve a clot, and that is exactly what these medicines do!. In some cases, these medicines can dissolve a clot within minutes!.

Clot busters work best when given right away!. Some studies have shown that the medicines may offer little benefit if they are given more than a few hours after the first symptoms of a heart attack or ischemic stroke!. visit http://heartattackprevented!.blogspot!.com!.!.!.
