Abstract:
P2Y12 receptor antagonist is currently one of the commonly used drugs for the treatment of acute coronary syndromes. Clopidogrel is a representative drug among P2Y12 receptor antagonists. Bleeding events as the most common side effect of this drug have also been concerned. The incidence and risk of bleeding events in large-scale clinical studies of clopidogrel are analyzed and discussed to provide refer-ences for reasonable clinical prescription of clopidogrel.
