Tiga 60 mg Tablet

Ticagrelor treatment should be initiated with a single 180 mg loading dose (two tablets of 90 mg) and then continued at 90 mg twice daily. Patients taking Ticagrelor should also take aspirin daily, unless specifically contraindicated. Following an initial dose of aspirin (usually 325 mg), Ticagrelor should be used with a maintenance dose of aspirin of 75-100 mg. Maintenance dose of Aspirin above 100 mg decreased the efficacy of Ticagrelor. So, maintenance dose of aspirin above 100 mg should be avoided.

A patient who misses a dose of Ticagrelor should take only one 90 mg tablet (the next dose) at its scheduled time. Patients treated with Clopidogrel can be directly switched to Ticagrelor if needed. Switching from prasugrel to ticagrelor has not been investigated.

Treatment is recommended for up to 12 months unless discontinuation of Ticagrelor is clinically indicated. Ticagrelor can be administered with or without food.
