Axcer 60 mg Tablet

Axcer 60 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 60 mg of ticagrelor in each tablet. It belongs to the antiplatelet class, which helps reduce the formation of harmful blood clots. Doctors use Axcer 60 mg Tablet to lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other serious blood-flow problems in people with certain heart and blood vessel conditions. It is taken by mouth as a standard tablet, often after a heart event or for ongoing secondary prevention.

How it works: Ticagrelor in Axcer 60 mg Tablet blocks a platelet receptor called P2Y12, which helps keep platelets from sticking together too easily. By making clots less likely to form, this tablet helps protect the heart and brain from blocked blood flow.

Axcer 60 mg Tablet is a higher-strength maintenance option compared with Axcer 90 mg Tablet. The 60 mg tablet may be chosen for people who have already been assessed by a doctor and need continued ticagrelor therapy rather than the higher initial treatment strength. It is not the usual starting strength for every patient, so the exact dose and timing should match the treatment plan your clinician selected.
