Beyond the Standard: Individualized Approaches to Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Gain Attention
Dirk Sibbing, Professor, Cardiologist and Angiologist at Privatklinik Lauterbacher Mühle and LMU Munich, shared an insightful post on LinkedIn:

However, evidence is accumulating that sex, age, BMI and many more variables may constitute relevant treatment effect modifiers for drugs like clopidogrel, prasugrel or ticagrelor.
See the latest data on DAPT and sex in the European Heart Journal and my Editorial that puts the findings into perspective.”
