How does Clopidogrel differ from other antiplatelet medications, and what factors influence its selection over alternatives like Aspirin or Prasugrel?
Clopidogrel is a P2Y12 inhibitor, used when aspirin is unsuitable. It’s less stomach-irritative than aspirin and chosen for its response variability over prasugrel, which can cause more bleeding.
