• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Prasugrel is a thienopyridine prodrug that inhibits the enzyme ADP-dependent P2Y purinergic receptor. Prasugrel inhibits platelet aggregation and the formation of blood clots by blocking the conversion of ADP to ATP on the surface of platelets, thus preventing the release of serotonin from platelets. The reaction products formed by prasugrel are similar to those formed by clopidogrel and include hydrogen sulfate ions and a thiol-containing metabolite. It has also been shown to have potent cytotoxic activity against melanoma cells and anti-inflammatory properties.
