High-Yield Explanation
Irreversible ADP receptor antagonists(P2Y12 receptor antagonist) are: * Prasugrel * Clopidogrel Both are prodrugs, so the metabolite formed inhibits the ADP receptor. Prasugrel is faster acting than clopidogrel and it has very high risk of causing cerebral haemorrhage. So, it is contraindicated in stroke or cerebrovascular accident. Reversible inhibitors of ADP receptor are: * Ticagrelor * Canegrelor
