Ticagrelor is an orally administered platelet aggregation inhibitor with a cyclopentyl‐triazolopyrimidine structure; it is a selective reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist, which prevents P2Y12‐mediated and ADP‐mediated platelet activation and aggregation. It is used to reduce the rate of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and stroke in patients with acute coronary syndrome or history of myocardial infarction. Several analytical methods have been published for the determination of ticagrelor in pharmaceuticals and biological materials by spectrophotometry, high‐performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection and liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. The purpose of the current review is to provide a systematic survey of the analytical techniques used for the determination of ticagrelor since its introduction in therapy until today.
