Bio Chemical Notes
Clopidogrel is used for the reduction of atherosclerotic events (myocardial infarction, stroke, and vascular death). Its active metabolite prevents binding of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to its platelet receptor, impairing the ADP-mediated activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex. It does this by irreversibly inhibiting the P2Y12 subtype of ADP receptor. Ref: Drugs. 1997; 54 (5), 745-750
