Subacute thrombosis of coronary stents in the CREST study was found to be more common in patients with hyporesponsiveness to clopidogrel.42 Clopidogrel is a pro-drug and its active metabolite irreversibly inhibits the binding of P2Y12 ADP receptor on platelets.43 Such metabolism invokes the possibility of the concurrent use of other medications as contributing factors to hyporesponsiveness in patients with coronary artery stenting. | |||||||||||||||

Clopidogrel (Plavix), a thienopyridine derivative, selectively inhibits the binding of ADP to its platelet receptor and the subsequent ADP-mediated activation of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex, thereby inhibiting platelet aggregation and reducing the formation of arterial and venous thrombi (Coukell and Markham 1997). | |||||||||||||||
