Epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) myopathy [PDF]
SummaryTwo female patients developed a severe, painful proximal myopathy after taking 18–30 g of epsilon-aminocaproic acid daily for 5 weeks. Marked elevations of serum aminotransferases, creatine kinase and aldolase levels were found and the first patient had electromyographic and muscle biopsy changes of an acute monophasic, necrotising myopathy at ...

Effects of Epsilon-Aminocaproic Acid on the Tuberculin Reaction in Man
Epsilon-amino caproic acid (EACA) is an inhibitor of plasminogen activators (1, 2) which has been used clinically to prevent bleeding (3). It has also been reported to have various antiinflammatory and “anti-allergic” effects, presumably by virtue of its anti-fibrinolytic and anti-proteolytic qualities.

Antifibrinolytic Activity During Administration of Epsilon-Aminocaproic Acid [PDF]
Utilizing an in vitro method for activated and nonactivated whole blood clotlysis determinations, the antifibrinolytic effect of epsilon-aminocaproic acid therapy was evaluated. Initially, the induced antifibrinolytic activity diminished within two hours after the previous dose.
