PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Effient is an inhibitor of platelet activation and aggregation through
the irreversible binding of its active
metabolite to the P2Y
12
class of ADP receptors on platelets. A variety of drugs that inhibit
platelet
function have been shown to decrease morbid events in people with
established atherosclerotic
disease. Since platelets participate in the initiation and/or
evolution of thrombotic complication
