Abstract

Antiplatelet therapies are recommended to reduce the risk of recurrent stroke in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke (IS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA); however, increased risk for bleeding may limit the use of currently approved agents. Real-world data on effectiveness and safety of antiplatelet regimens are lacking. This study evaluated outpatient antiplatelet treatment patterns for secondary stroke prevention (SSP) after first hospitalization for IS/TIA among UK adults without atrial fibrillation (AF).
