Fahad Khaliq on When is Ticagrelor Preferred Over Other Antiplatelets

Fahad Khaliq, Doctor of Medicine at Allied Hospital, Faisalabad, reposted from Muhammad Moor on X:

”Faster, potent, better, reversible, better mortality results

But here’s the plot twist!

If a patient is already on anticoagulation/high risk bleed, Clopidogrel is preferred

Rule of thumb:
• STEMI pt undergoing PCI: Ticagrelor
• STEMI pt undergoing Thrombolysis: Clopidogrel

Quoting Muhammad Moor‘s post:

”Why is Ticagrelor sometimes preferred over other antiplatelets in acute coronary syndrome (ACS)?”
