Overview
Dipyridamole is a pyrimidopyrimidine derivative with poor anti-thrombotic efficacy and therefore not recommended for anti-platelet therapy in patients with chronic stable angina.[1] Dipyridamole may also exacerbate anginal symptoms due to coronary steal phenomenon.[2]
Mechanisms of benefit
- Dipyridamole is a pyrimido-pyrimidine derivative.
- Dipyridamole exerts vasodilator effects on coronary resistance vessels.
Contra-indications
Dipyridamole enhances exercise-induced myocardial ischemia even the usual oral dosage and hence it not used as an anti-platelet agent in patients with stable angina.
Adverse effects
- Exercise induced myocardial ischemia
- Exacerbation of anginal symptoms
- Hypotension
- Headache
- Bronchospasm
Supportive trial data
In a post hoc analysis that investigated cardiac events in patients with coronary heart disease or MI at study entry, dipyridamole therapy did not result in a higher number of cardiac events such as angina pectoris, MI or death from all causes. [3]
