Both PPIs similarly blunt clopidogrel antiplatelet effect; confirms no differential interaction in CAD patients.
Does omeprazole compared to rabeprazole differentially affect the antiplatelet action of clopidogrel in CAD patients?
Both omeprazole and rabeprazole similarly decrease the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel in CAD patients, as measured by ADP-induced platelet aggregation.
Siriswangvat et al. (2010) studied this question.
