Use of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonists to prevent stent thrombosis in morphine-treated patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction

Use of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonists to prevent stent thrombosis in morphine-treated patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction

Morphine can delay absorption of P2Y12-inhibitors in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, which has the potential to expose these patients to increased stent thrombosis risk after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).
