Cangrelor injection is used in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to lower the risk of blood clots and heart attack.

A heart attack or stroke may occur when a blood vessel in the heart or brain is blocked by a blood clot. Cangrelor reduces the chance that a harmful blood clot will form by preventing certain cells in the blood from clumping together. This effect of cangrelor may also increase the chance of serious bleeding in some people.

Cangrelor is to be given only by or under the supervision of your doctor.
