Indication

Active Bleeding: Patients with active pathological bleeding eg, peptic ulcer or intracranial hemorrhage. Severe Hepatic Impairment: Patients with severe hepatic impairment because of a probable increase in exposure, and it has not been studied in these patients. Severe hepatic impairment increases the risk of bleeding because of reduced synthesis of coagulation proteins. Hypersensitivity (eg, angioedema) to ticagrelor or to any of the components.
