CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
It is believed that platelet reactivity and interaction with
prosthetic cardiac valve surfaces, resulting in
abnormally shortened platelet survival time, is a significant factor
in thromboembolic complications
occurring in connection with prosthetic heart valve replacement.
PERSANTINE tablets have been found to lengthen abnormally shortened
platelet survival time in a
dose-dependent manner.
In three randomized controlled clinical trials involving 854 patients
who had undergone surgical
placement of a prosthetic heart valve, PERSANTINE tablets, in
combination with warfarin, decreased
the incidence of postoperative thromboembolic events by 62 to 91%
compared to warfarin treatment
alone. The incidence of thromboembolic events in patients receiving
the combination of PERSANTINE
tablets and warfarin ranged from 1.2 to 1.8%. In three additional
studies involving 392 patients taking
PERSANTINE tablets and coumarin-like anticoagulants, the incidence of
throm
