Expert advice for Nattokinase
- Nattokinase helps break down blood clots in blood vessels, thereby treating conditions such as heart attack, pulmonary embolism, and stroke.
- It should be given as soon as possible (within 12 hours) after the onset of a heart attack.
- It is usually given by your nurse or doctor as an infusion (drip) into a vein.
- It increases your risk of bleeding. Be careful while shaving, cutting fingernails or toenails, using sharp objects or engaging in contact sports (e.g. football, wrestling).
- Do not discontinue use without consulting your doctor as this may increase your chances of having another heart attack or stroke.
