Clopidogrel.


In medicine, clopidogrel is a thienopyridine class platelet aggregation inhibitor. It is used in the secondary prevention of stroke and coronary heart disease.

Metabolism

It is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 2C19 allele and so may have drug interactions[1][2] and inherited variations in metabolism.[3][4][5]

30% of patients may have a reduced-function allele.[3] and patients with a loss of function CYP2C19 allele have higher rates of cardiac events.[3][5]

Effectiveness

"Major bleedings were also increased in the group receiving aspirin and clopidogrel but no difference was recorded in mortality." according to the MATCH randomized controlled trial. [6]

Adverse effects

Inadequate effect in patients with coronary heart disease can be due to CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles which are associated with more cardiovascular events.[3][5] Proton pump inhibitors (especially inhibitors other than pantoprazole[7]), which are metabolized by the CYP2C19 isoenzyme of cytochrome P-450, may[2] or may not[8][9] increase adverse cardiac events.
