Prasugrel and ticagrelor provide a superior anti-ischemic action than clopidogrel, with some of ticagrelor's benefits possibly attributed to adenosine-mediated mechanisms. We aimed to compare the effect of maintenance dose of ticagrelor versus prasugrel on coronary blood flow velocity (CBFV) during increasing doses of intravenously administered adenosine.
