Drug Mode of Action ::
Prasugrel is a prodrug that inhibits platelet activation and aggregation. The active metabolite irreversibly blocks the P2Y12 component of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptors on the platelet, which prevents activation of the GPIIb/IIIa receptor complex, thereby reducing platelet activation and aggregation.
Drug Interactions ::
Increased risk of bleeding w/ oral anticoagulants (e.g. warfain), clopidogrel, NSAIDs and fibrinolytics.
