Persantine


Generic Name: Dipyridamole Tablets (dye-peer-ID-a-mole)
Brand Name: Persantine

Persantine is used for:

Preventing blood clots after heart valve surgery. It is used in combination with anticoagulants (eg, warfarin). It also may be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Persantine is a platelet inhibitor. How it works is not fully understood. It is thought to work by increasing the levels of a body chemical (adenosine), which widens blood vessels and decreases platelet activity.
