Aggrastat lowers death risk after unstable angina study shows
Two trials show Aggrastat tirofiban added to aspirin or heparin reduces death after unstable angina or mild heart attack. In New Zealand, 3,232 patients receiving Aggrastat had 2.3 percent deaths versus 3.6 percent on heparin at one month. In Canada, results varied by severity with mixed outcomes across groups and a 44 percent reduction in heart attacks when Aggrastat plus heparin was used.
