Conditions:
Tirofiban is a non-peptide antagonist of the platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor. Tirofiban is a reversible, competitive inhibitor of GP IIb/IIIa receptors, exerting its effects via the prevention of the binding of fibrinogen and other ligands, resulting in the inhibition of the last common step of thrombi formation. Tirofiban was discovered by Merck, USA, and was approved by the FDA in 1998 under the trade name AGGRASTAT. AGGRASTAT, in combination with heparin, is indicated for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome, including patients who are to be managed medically and those undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty or atherectomy. AGGRASTAT reduces the risk of ischaemic complications in patients with unstable angina/non-Q-wave myocardial infarction and high-risk patients undergoing revascularisation when used against a background of heparin and aspirin. Furthermore, the drug has an acceptable tolerability profile. Therefore, intravenous tirofiban is likely to be used as an adjunct to heparin and aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndromes including high-risk patients undergoing revascularisation.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)
Conditions:
Clopidogrel, an antiplatelet agent structurally and pharmacologically similar to ticlopidine, is used to inhibit blood clots in a variety of conditions such as peripheral vascular disease, coronary artery disease, and cerebrovascular disease. Clopidogrel is sold under the name Plavix by Sanofi and Bristol-Myers Squibb. Plavix (clopidogrel bisulfate) is an inhibitor of ADP-induced platelet aggregation acting by direct
inhibition of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) binding to its receptor and of the subsequent ADPmediated
activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex. Clopidogrel must be metabolized by CYP450 enzymes to produce the active metabolite that
inhibits platelet aggregation. The active metabolite of clopidogrel selectively inhibits the
binding of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to its platelet P2Y12 receptor and the subsequent ADPmediated
activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex, thereby inhibiting platelet
aggregation. This action is irreversible. Consequently, platelets exposed to clopidogrel’s active
metabolite are affected for the remainder of their lifespan (about 7 to 10 days). Platelet
aggregation induced by agonists other than ADP is also inhibited by blocking the amplification
of platelet activation by released ADP. Plavix (clopidogrel bisulfate) is indicated for the reduction of atherothrombotic events.
