Abstract

Vomiting is associated with lower levels of ticagrelor concentration and higher platelet reactivity in the early hours of ST-elevation myocardial infarction. These results support reloading with a ticagrelor loading dose and/or treatment with intravenous platelet inhibitors when patients vomit.
