A Polypill for Acute Coronary Syndrome
Sponsor: University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center
Summary
The current study aims to investigate whether combining the standard medications prescribed after acute coronary syndrome (ACS)-aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitors, and statins-into a single polypill can improve outcomes following an ACS event. Although these therapies are effective, gaps in adherence and uptake significantly contribute to risk or adverse events in the post-ACS period. This study is designed as a pragmatic, multi-center, randomized trial to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a polypill-based strategy for treatment of ACS.
