Aggregometry Response to Half-dose Prasugrel in Flow-diverting Stent Implantation.

Half-dose (30 mg) prasugrel loading results in effective platelet P2Y12 receptor inhibition in more than 98% of patients. Dual antiaggregant loading with half dose prasugrel followed by prasugrel maintenance as a first-line therapy appears to be feasible in patients treated with FDS implantation for intracranial aneurysm.
