"GOOD NEWS!LIBRE NA ANG GAMOT PARA SA MGA STROKE PATIENTS. The Department of Health announced that the medicine for stroke patients is now available at some selected hospitals nationwide and its  free. Alteplase or tissue plasminogen activator,the medication for stroke which usually costs Php80,000 per vial is a trully life-saving drug that is ideally administered within 3 hours upon onset of fatal stroke,Health Secretary Paulyn Jean B. Rosell-Ubial explained.The DOH procured the said medicine for only Php30,000 and now became available to everyone waiving the excuse of not being treated because they cannot provide the money needed to have access to the pricey stroke medication. Ubial however reminded doctors must first distinguish the type of stroke the patient has because alteplease will only benefit a patient with ischemic type of stroke as the medicine ""breaks down unwanted blood clots."" ""Alteplase will just worsen the stroke if given to those with the haemorrhagic type since this will just promote more bleeding in the brain,"" she added."
