Ticagrelor has been linked to rare instances of hypersensitivity reactions accompanied by mild liver injury.</p></div><div id="Ticagrelor.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Ticagrelor (tye ka' grel or) is a non-thienopyridine, reversible inhibitor of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptors (P2Y 12) on platelets and is used to decrease the risk of recurrent coronary thromboses in patients who undergo interventions during an acute coronary syndrome. Activated platelets release ADP which binds to ADP platelet receptors, causing activation of intracellular glycoprotein IIb/IIIA complex which triggers platelet adherence and aggregation. The aggregation of platelets plays an important role in the growth of atheromatous plaques, which can lead to coronary, cerebral and peripheral arterial occlusions. In clinical trials, ticagrelor therapy during acute coronary events (unstable angina and myocardial infarction) has been shown to decrease the frequency of recurrence of myocardial infarction and stent thrombosis. Ticagrelor was approved for use in the United States in 2011 and has been used in limited numbers of patients for a limited time only. Current indications are reduction of recurrent cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Ticagrelor is available in 90 mg tablets under the commercial name Brilinta. The usual maintenance dose is 90 mg twice daily in combination with daily low dose aspirin (&#x0003c;100 mg). Side effects are not common, but can include bleeding (12%), dyspnea (14%), headaches, nausea, diarrhea, hypotension and hypersensitivity reactions. Rare but potentially severe adverse reactions include severe bleeding, rhabdomyolysis, complications of drug-drug interactions, angioedema and hypersensitivity reactions.</p></div><div id="Ticagrelor.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>In several large clinical trials, ticagrelor was not associated with serum enzyme elevations during therapy and no instances of clinically apparent liver injury were reported. While there have been isolated reports of transient and mild serum enzyme elevations during ticagrelor therapy, these have been short lived and asymptomatic. In addition, since marketing and release, there have been no reports of isolated clinically apparent liver injury or jaundice associated with ticagrelor therapy and hepatotoxicity is not mentioned in the product label. On the other hand, there have been several reports of jaundice and liver injury associated with rhabdomyolysis and with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura that represented secondary effects of these severe adverse events. Thus, significant liver injury due to ticagrelor occurs but has occurred largely in association with other life-threatening complications.</p><p><a class="def" href="/books/n/livertox/glossary/def-item/glossary.likelihood-score/">Likelihood score</a>: D (possible rare cause of liver injury due to complications of severe allergic reactions or drug-drug interactions).</p></div><div id="Ticagrelor.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>Ticagrelor, unlike clopidogrel, does not require metabolic activation for its antiplatelet effects. Ticagrelor is metabolized in the liver predominantly via CYP 3A4 and it should be used with caution in patients taking CYP 3A4 inhibitors (such as ketoconazole, clarithromycin, atazanavir and nefazodone), which can increase serum levels, or CYP 3A4 inducers (such as rifampin, dexamethasone and phenytoin) which can decrease drug levels.</p></div><div id="Ticagrelor.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>There is little evidence that ticagrelor can cause liver injury or has any cross sensitivity to other antiplatelet agents, so that switching from clopidogrel or prasugrel after clinically apparent liver injury is probably safe.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Anticoagulants/">Antithrombotic Agents</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Anticoagulants/">Antiplatelet Agents</a></p><p>Other Drugs in the Subclass, Antiplatelet Agents: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Aspirin/">Aspirin</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Cangrelor/">Cangrelor</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Clopidogrel/">Clopidogrel</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Dipyridamole/">Dipyridamole</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Prasugrel/">Prasugrel</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Ticlopidine/">Ticlopidine</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Vorapaxar/">Vorapaxar</a></p></div></div><div id="Ticagrelor.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Ticagrelor_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
