Brilinta 90Mg 56Tab

Brilinta is a medication used to treat and prevent blood clots, classified as an antiplatelet drug. It contains the active ingredient Ticagrelor, which works to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes in patients with coronary artery disease.

Ticagrelor works by inhibiting platelet activity, preventing the formation of blood clots. This effect helps improve blood flow to the heart and brain, reducing the risk of serious complications such as heart attacks and strokes. Brilinta is commonly used after surgical procedures like heart stent placements, where patients are at a higher risk of clot formation.
