Aspirin and oral anticoagulants are effective treatments in the secondary prevention after myocardial infarction. Aspirin at the dosage of 160-325 mg per day accomplishes a 21% reduction of the recurrences of vascular events (INR: 3-4). Oral anticoagulants are likely to be more effective; this therapy however is more demanding for the patient and the referring physician and is associated with a higher risk of hemorrhage. According to the available information from the literature, aspirin should be recommended for the majority of patients surviving after myocardial infarction. Oral anticoagulants should be reserved for post-infarction patients at high risk of thromboembolism and for those patients who present either intolerance to aspirin or recurrence of vascular events during aspirin treatment.
