Abstract

This review is an update on antiplatelet therapy and its interaction with oral hypoglycemic agents in diabetic patients with ischemic heart disease. We summarize the main pathophysiological mechanisms that intervene in diabetic patients and that increase the ischemic risk, the effects of the combination of oral hypoglycemic agents, their antithrombotic effects and their interaction with antiplatelet, and finally the studies that demonstrated the benefits of antiplatelet in diabetic patients in different scenarios of ischemic heart disease. The different mechanisms of action involve improved glycemic control, increased bioavailability of nitric oxide, reduced oxidative stress and, for certain molecules, direct inhibition of platelet activation and aggregation.

Esta revisión consiste en una puesta al día del tratamiento antiplaquetario y la interacción que presenta con los hipoglucemiantes orales en pacientes diabéticos con cardiopatía isquémica. Resumimos los principales mecanismos fisiopatológicos que intervienen en el aumento del riesgo cardiovascular en este grupo, los efectos de la combinación entre los hipoglucemiantes orales, sus efectos antitrombóticos y su interacción con los antiplaquetarios y, por último, los trabajos que estudiaron los beneficios de los antiplaquetarios en pacientes diabéticos en diferentes escenarios de la cardiopatía isquémica. Los variados mecanismos de acción implican una mejora del control de la glucemia, del aumento de la biodisponibilidad del óxido nítrico, reducción del estrés oxidativo y, para ciertas moléculas, una inhibición directa de la activación y de la agregación plaquetaria.

Keywords: antidiabetic drugs; antiplatelet agents; coronary artery disease; hypoglycemic drugs.
