Mechanism of action
Aspirin irreversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX), reducing thromboxane A2 production and platelet activation. Clopidogrel and ticagrelor are P2Y12 receptor antagonists that block adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-mediated platelet aggregation. Together, this dual antiplatelet therapy provides synergistic inhibition of platelet function to prevent thrombotic events.
