Abstract
Based on the findings from the present review, ticagrelor provides reversible inhibition of adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation, with a faster onset of action than clopidogrel, and is effective in the treatment of patients with ACS. More data are required to definitively position ticagrelor with respect to other antiplatelet agents, including prasugrel.
