Take Home Points • Initial therapy for everyone • think ASA and nitrates • Be careful with BB, CCB, morphine • Consider ace inhibitors • Pick an anti-platelet...or two...or three... • Plavix in everyone at 300mg • Talk to cardio about prasugrel or ticagrelor • Leave the GPI until they go to PCI • Protect the stomach! • PPIs show more benefit than harm • Pick an anti-coagulant • UFH if high risk or going to CABG • Enox or Bivalirudin if going to PCI • Fonda if conservative strategy or high risk for bleeding • For the ones sent home... • ASA and Plavix for at least 1 month • Stress test within 72 hours
