    Although dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin combined with clopidogrel (ASA+CLO) can reduce the risk of early recurrence after mild ischemic stroke and high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA)


    Aspirin combined with clopidogrel (ASA+CLO) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) transient ischemic attack (TIA)

    A meta-analysis showed that DAPT of ASA+CLO, initiated mainly within 24 hours of stroke onset, significantly reduced the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke within 3 months of stroke onset, but significantly increased major bleeding within 1 month of stroke onset risk



    Cilostazol Cilostazol plus aspirin (CLZ + ASA) Cilostazol plus clopidogrel (CLZ + CLO)


    Researchers analyzed data from the csps website to test the hypothesis that starting cilostazol in the first few weeks is more effective and safer than aspirin or clopidogrel alone


    • Of the 1879 patients, 498 were in the 8-14d group, 467 in the 15-28d group, and 914 in the 29-180d group


      Long-term dual antiplatelet therapy with cilostazol initiated 15-180 days after stroke onset was more effective than 8-14 days after treatment initiation, and was more effective in preventing secondary stroke than monotherapy without increasing the risk of bleeding
