==Indications and Usage==
 
===Drug Interactions===
 
Ticagrelor is predominantly metabolized by CYP3A4 and to a lesser extent by CYP3A5. Ticagrelor is also a p-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate.
 
===CYP3A inhibitors===
 
Avoid use of strong inhibitors of CYP3A (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, clarithromycin, nefazodone, ritonavir, saquinavir, nelfinavir, indinavir, atazanavir and telithromycin) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
===CYP3A inducers===
 
Avoid use with potent inducers of CYP3A (e.g., rifampin, dexamethasone, phenytoin, carbamazepine and phenobarbital) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
===Aspirin===
 
Use of BRILINTA with aspirin maintenance doses above 100 mg reduced the effectiveness of BRILINTA[see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) and Clinical Studies (14)].
 
Effect of BRILINTA on other drugs
 
Ticagrelor is an inhibitor of CYP3A4/5 and the P-glycoprotein transporter.
 
* Simvastatin, lovastatin
 
BRILINTA will result in higher serum concentrations of simvastatin and lovastatin because these drugs are metabolized by CYP3A4. Avoid simvastatin and lovastatin doses greater than 40 mg [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
* Digoxin
 
Digoxin: Because of inhibition of the P-glycoprotein transporter, monitor digoxin levels with initiation of or any change in BRILINTA therapy [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
* Other Concomitant Therapy
 
BRILINTA can be administered with unfractionated or low-molecular-weight heparin, GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors, proton pump inhibitors, beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers. <ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = BRILINTA (TICAGRELOR) TABLET [ASTRAZENECA LP] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=f7b3f443-e83d-4bf2-0e96-023448fed9a8 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 26 February 2014 }}</ref>
