Use:Ticlopidine is an antiplatelet drug with a mechanism of action different from that of aspirin or other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs. Ticlopidine decreases platelet aggregation, circulating platelet aggregates, and prolongs bleeding time. It may be useful in the prevention of thromboembolic disorders, cardiovascular mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, and vaso-occlusive sickle cell crisis. The drug may also be useful in maintaining graft patency or access sites for hemodialysis.

Usual dosage:IM, SC is preffered; in emergency, direct IV push not exceeding 1mg/min, or IV infusion. Dose, route, duration of therapy are dependent on patient's requirements and regulated by repeated determinations of prothrombin time.
