Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT): Acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin) and ticagrelor.

The proposed study is to investigate whether neutrophils are affected by dual antiplatelet therapy.
Participants will receive DAPT (oral tablets) for a total of seven days. Participants will receive a combination of Acetylsalicylic acid (300 mg loading dose on day 1, 100 mg maintenance dose on days 2 – 7) and ticagrelor (180 mg loading dose on day 1, 90 mg maintenance dose on days 1 – 7). This treatment regime mimics the routine administration of DAPT for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients in Aotearoa New Zealand. Adherence to medication will be recorded by participants (date and time of dose) and checked by the study researchers at each study visit. Participants are also informed that non-adherence at any point during the 7 day study period will result in withdrawal from the study.

After Day 1 (loading doses), participants will self-administer DAPT and record timing and dates of each dose in a provided form. Participants can also choose to be notified when it is time to take their next dose of DAPT.
