Patients who receive drug-eluting (coated) stents are recommended to take aspirin and one of these antiplatelet medications for at least a year after stent implantation. Taking aspirin and a second antiplatelet medication, such as Plavix, Effient, or Brilinta, is called dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). If you are a patient who is about to undergo a medical procedure with a physician other than the cardiologist who prescribed DAPT for you, be sure to talk with both doctors.
Brilintaâ¢ is a prescription antiplatelet medication that is used to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular-related deaths in people who have acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In people with ACS who are treated with angioplasty, Brilinta also helps to prevent the stent from forming clots.
