01
Overview
Antiplatelet drugs are a class of medications that prevent platelet aggregation and blood clot formation, primarily used to prevent cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. They target various molecules involved in platelet activation, including enzymes like cyclooxygenase and receptors like P2Y12 and Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa.

Mechanism of action
Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX-1) by aspirin, blockade of ADP receptors (P2Y12) by clopidogrel and prasugrel, inhibition of phosphodiesterase by dipyridamole, blockade of Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors by abciximab and tirofiban
