Study Notes
Blockers of Platelet ADP Receptors
- Agents: Ticlopidine, Clopidogrel, Prasugrel
- These drugs irreversibly inhibit ADP binding to platelet receptors, preventing glycoprotein IIb/IIIa activation necessary for platelet aggregation with fibrinogen.
- Clopidogrel is approved for thrombus prophylaxis in cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases, particularly for coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease, with a maintenance dose of 75 mg/day orally.
- Clopidogrel is a prodrug; its efficacy depends on conversion to an active metabolite. Genetic variations may lead some individuals to be “poor metabolizers,” limiting the drug's effectiveness.
- Ticlopidine has largely been replaced by clopidogrel due to serious side effects like neutropenia and increased bleeding risks, which are less frequent with clopidogrel.
Blockers of Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Receptors
- Agents: Abciximab, Eptifibatide, Tirofiban
- Activation of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors signals the final pathway for platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding. Individuals lacking this receptor suffer from Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, a bleeding disorder.
- Abciximab (a monoclonal antibody fragment) directly blocks glycoprotein IIb/IIIa, inhibiting platelet-fibrinogen binding.
- Eptifibatide is a small synthetic peptide that competitively inhibits the IIb/IIIa receptor.
- Tirofiban is a low molecular weight peptide that attaches to the glycoprotein IIIb/IIIa receptor.
- These agents are indicated for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, unstable angina, and post-myocardial infarction conditions.
Dipyridamole
- Inhibits phosphodiesterase (PDE) to increase cGMP levels, promoting vasodilation and reducing platelet activity.
- Also inhibits adenosine uptake in platelets and red blood cells, leading to extracellular accumulation and extended effects.
- Primarily used for prophylaxis in patients with prosthetic heart valves, often combined with warfarin.
Systemic Agents for Bleeding Disorders
- Vitamin K: Necessary for synthesis of coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X. Available in oral and injectable forms.
- Vitamin C and Rutin: Maintain vascular wall integrity.
- Fresh blood/plasma transfusions: Provide necessary coagulation factors.
- Plasma Fractions: Includes thromboplastin (factor III), antihemophilic globulin (factor VIII), and calcium.
- Aminocaproic and Tranexamic acid: Inhibit the fibrinolytic system.
- Ethamsylate (Dicynone): Reduces capillary bleeding when given intramuscularly.
Vitamin K
- Sources: Vitamin K1 (phytomenadione) found in green vegetables; Vitamin K2 synthesized by intestinal bacteria.
- Bile salts are required for absorption of both K1 and K2.
- Medicinal uses include reversing bleeding from warfarin overdose, addressing dietary deficiencies, and preventing neonatal hypothrombinemia.
- Adverse effects can occur with rapid intravenous administration of vitamin K1.
Plasma Fractions
- Coagulation factor deficiencies can lead to spontaneous bleeding when factor activity drops below 5-10% of normal.
- Hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency) and Hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency) are common hereditary bleeding disorders.
- Plasma preparations for treatment are often derived from multiple donors, risking infection exposure. Recombinant products are preferred when available.
Inhibitors of Fibrinolysis
- Aminocaproic Acid: Competes with plasminogen, reducing activation.
- Tranexamic Acid: More potent analog of aminocaproic acid with similar action.
- Therapeutic uses include preventing bleeding in surgeries involving rich tissues in plasminogen activators and treating hemorrhages due to fibrinolytic drug toxicity.

Inhibitors of Fibrinolysis
- Aminocaproic Acid: Competes with plasminogen, reducing activation.
- Tranexamic Acid: More potent analog of aminocaproic acid with similar action.
- Therapeutic uses include preventing bleeding in surgeries involving rich tissues in plasminogen activators and treating hemorrhages due to fibrinolytic drug toxicity.
Blockers of Platelet ADP Receptors
- Agents: Ticlopidine, Clopidogrel, Prasugrel
- These drugs irreversibly inhibit ADP binding to platelet receptors, preventing glycoprotein IIb/IIIa activation necessary for platelet aggregation with fibrinogen.
- Clopidogrel is approved for thrombus prophylaxis in cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases, particularly for coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease, with a maintenance dose of 75 mg/day orally.
- Clopidogrel is a prodrug; its efficacy depends on conversion to an active metabolite. Genetic variations may lead some individuals to be “poor metabolizers,” limiting the drug's effectiveness.
- Ticlopidine has largely been replaced by clopidogrel due to serious side effects like neutropenia and increased bleeding risks, which are less frequent with clopidogrel.
Blockers of Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Receptors
- Agents: Abciximab, Eptifibatide, Tirofiban
- Activation of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors signals the final pathway for platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding. Individuals lacking this receptor suffer from Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, a bleeding disorder.
- Abciximab (a monoclonal antibody fragment) directly blocks glycoprotein IIb/IIIa, inhibiting platelet-fibrinogen binding.
- Eptifibatide is a small synthetic peptide that competitively inhibits the IIb/IIIa receptor.
- Tirofiban is a low molecular weight peptide that attaches to the glycoprotein IIIb/IIIa receptor.
- These agents are indicated for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, unstable angina, and post-myocardial infarction conditions.
Dipyridamole
- Inhibits phosphodiesterase (PDE) to increase cGMP levels, promoting vasodilation and reducing platelet activity.
- Also inhibits adenosine uptake in platelets and red blood cells, leading to extracellular accumulation and extended effects.
- Primarily used for prophylaxis in patients with prosthetic heart valves, often combined with warfarin.
Systemic Agents for Bleeding Disorders
- Vitamin K: Necessary for synthesis of coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X. Available in oral and injectable forms.
- Vitamin C and Rutin: Maintain vascular wall integrity.
- Fresh blood/plasma transfusions: Provide necessary coagulation factors.
- Plasma Fractions: Includes thromboplastin (factor III), antihemophilic globulin (factor VIII), and calcium.
- Aminocaproic and Tranexamic acid: Inhibit the fibrinolytic system.
- Ethamsylate (Dicynone): Reduces capillary bleeding when given intramuscularly.
Vitamin K
- Sources: Vitamin K1 (phytomenadione) found in green vegetables; Vitamin K2 synthesized by intestinal bacteria.
- Bile salts are required for absorption of both K1 and K2.
- Medicinal uses include reversing bleeding from warfarin overdose, addressing dietary deficiencies, and preventing neonatal hypothrombinemia.
- Adverse effects can occur with rapid intravenous administration of vitamin K1.
Plasma Fractions
- Coagulation factor deficiencies can lead to spontaneous bleeding when factor activity drops below 5-10% of normal.
- Hemophilia A (factor VIII deficiency) and Hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency) are common hereditary bleeding disorders.
- Plasma preparations for treatment are often derived from multiple donors, risking infection exposure. Recombinant products are preferred when available.
