==Contraindications==
 
====History of Intracranial Hemorrhage====
 
BRILINTA is contraindicated in patients with a history of [[intracranial hemorrhage|intracranial hemorrhage (ICH)]] because of a high risk of recurrent [[ICH]] in this population  ''[see [[Ticagrelor clinical studies|Clinical Studies]]]''.
 
====Active Bleeding====
 
BRILINTA is contraindicated in patients with active pathological bleeding such as peptic ulcer or [[intracranial hemorrhage]] [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) and Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
 
====Severe Hepatic Impairment====
 
BRILINTA is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment because of a probable increase in exposure, and it has not been studied in these patients. Severe hepatic impairment increases the risk of bleeding because of reduced synthesis of coagulation proteins [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
 
====Hypersensitivity====
 
BRILINTA is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity (e.g. [[angioedema]]) to ticagrelor or any component of the product [see Adverse Reactions (6.2)].<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 = }}</ref>
