Abstrakt		Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet agent, which is more effective than acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in the reduction of the combined risk of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke or vascular death. It is also effective in preventing recurrent MI, stroke or vascular death in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without ST elevation in combination with standard antiplatelet therapy, which is ASA. Based on the CAPRIE and CURE trials and pharmacoeconomic analysis, treatment with clopidogrel is also cost-effective, meaning that the costs of additional treatment are acceptable as compared to the costs resulting from the illness itself and its economic burden.
