This analysis focuses on the posthospital, secondary prevention of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), which typically involves the implementation of antithrombotic, neurohormonal blocking, and lipid-modifying strategies. The current ACS secondary prevention market is entrenched with generic therapies. Branded options include the oral antiplatelet agents Brilinta and Zontivity and the PCSK9 inhibitors Repatha and Praluent. Using a longitudinal claims data analysis, we demonstrate how secondary prevention of ACS is being treated in the United States and provide insights into what is driving current prescribing practices for newly diagnosed and recently treated patients.
