Q

preferred loading dose of clopidogrel

A

600 mg loading dose preferred because it results in greater, more rapid and more reliable platelet inhibition compared to 300 mg

Q

Why are DES not preferred if patient can not comply with prolonged DAPT

A

DES are associated with late stent thrombosis as bare metal stents are a big risk early on and not late
