Summary

This study tests whether a single daily polypill (combining blood pressure, cholesterol, and anti-clotting drugs) can help recent stroke survivors in Ghana avoid future strokes or heart attacks. About 500 participants will take the polypill or receive usual care for 24 months. The goal is to see if the polypill improves control of key risk factors and is practical for use in low-resource settings.
