Alteplase (Activase) is the fibrinolytic agent used specifically for a PE and is dosed at 100 mg over 2 hours, then followed by heparin. Tenecteplase (TNKase) and reteplase (Retavase) are also fibrinolytic agents but are not specifically indicated for PE. Actinoplase is not a recognized fibrinolytic agent.
