Which antiplatelet inhibits uptake of adenosine ?
Dipyridamole (persantine)
Which drug is used mainly to prevent MI?

What are the three thienopyridines?
clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticlopidine
How does Prasugrel prevent aggregaton?
binding to the P2Y12 ADP receptor
Indications - ticlopidine
preention of thrombotic cardiovascular events
Tricagrelor inhibits aggregation by
blocking P2Y12ADP receptor - but shorter duration of action compared to thienopyridines
What drug interacts with clopidogrel?
PPIs - they inhibit CYP2C19, which activates clopidogrel. Can be used with other thienopyridines
If patients on clopidogrel require a PPI, what should be used?
pantoprazole
