Abstract
Ticagrelor is a novel receptor antagonist that selectively binds to the P2Y12 receptor, thereby inhibiting adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-mediated platelet aggregation. Compared to clopidogrel, ticagrelor has the advantages of a fast onset, potent effects, and a reversible platelet inhibition function, which make this drug clinically suitable for treating acute coronary syndrome (ACS), especially acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This review was performed to determine the basic characteristics, clinical effects, and adverse reactions of ticagrelor. Relevant trials and reports were obtained from the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. Ticagrelor is rapidly absorbed by the body after oral administration, exhibits inherent activity without requiring metabolic activation, and binds reversibly to the P2Y12 receptor. Ticagrelor has been recommended in ACS treatment guidelines worldwide due to its advantageous pharmacological properties and significant clinical benefits. Ticagrelor inhibits platelet aggregation, inhibits inflammatory response, enhances adenosine function, and has cardioprotective effects. However, ticagrelor also causes adverse reactions such as bleeding tendency, dyspnea, ventricular pause, gout, kidney damage, and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in clinical treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to risk assessments when using ticagrelor. Ticagrelor is a promising drug for the effective treatment of ACS. When using ticagrelor, individualized treatment should be provided based on the specific conditions of the patients to avoid serious adverse events.
