Rajshahi Medical College Hospital (RMCH) has received alteplase — a revolutionary thrombolytic drug valued at nearly Tk 17 crore — as a donation from the Netherlands. The medicine, used for treating stroke and myocardial infarction, will now be available to patients at RMCH completely free of cost. This achievement was spearheaded by Dr. Shirsha Shreyan, an intern doctor from the 61st batch of RMCH, who partnered with international organizations including the World Stroke Organization, Direct Relief, and the Angel’s Initiative. His initiative was guided and supported by legendary medicine specialist Professor Dr. Azizul Haque Azad.
