Fact checkedWhat are Antiplatelets (Prevent Clots)?
Antiplatelets are medications used to prevent blood clots by stopping platelets from sticking together. These medications are essential for reducing the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events in people with high clotting risks.
How do Antiplatelets (Prevent Clots) work?
Antiplatelets work by interfering with the clotting process. Platelets are blood cells that clump together to form clots, but in some cases, excessive clotting can block blood flow. Antiplatelets reduce this clumping, keeping blood vessels open and promoting smoother circulation.
What conditions do Antiplatelets (Prevent Clots) treat?
Antiplatelets are commonly prescribed to treat or prevent:
- Heart attacks and strokes
- Angina (chest pain)
- Peripheral artery disease (PAD)
- Blood clots after stent placement or bypass surgery
- Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs or mini-strokes)
Common medications in Antiplatelets (Prevent Clots)s
Popular antiplatelet medications include:
- Aspirin (Low-Dose): Prevents blood clots in high-risk individuals
- Clopidogrel (Plavix): Reduces clotting risks after stent placement or heart attack
- Ticagrelor (Brilinta): Used with aspirin to prevent stroke or heart attack
- Prasugrel (Effient): Prevents clots in patients with acute coronary syndrome
- Dipyridamole (Persantine): Often combined with aspirin for added protection
