  12. Safety Conclusions • ESPS-2 clinical data supports the safetyof AGGRENOX™ • No unexpected adverse events observedwith combined use of DP and ASA

  13. Safety Conclusions • DP-related adverse events are primarily headache and gastrointestinal complaints, as expected • ASA-related adverse events are primarily bleeding events, as expected

  14. Safety Conclusions • Serious adverse events of potential clinical significance other than stroke were uncommon • No demographic or disease-related factors identified • Data demonstrate the safety of AGGRENOX™when taken as directed • Benefit-risk of AGGRENOX™ is favorable
