The interactions of ticlopidine and aspirin in normal subjects.

This trial was performed on 24 health volunteers in order to study the possible interactions between aspirin and ticlopidine. The results confirm the inhibitory activity of aspirin on collagen-induced aggregation and that of ticlopidine on ADP-induced aggregation. If aspirin does not modify the inhibitory effect of ticlopidine on ADP-induced aggregation, ticlopidine on the other hand potentiates the effect of aspirin on collagen-induced aggregation.
