First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 06, 2026 · Updated 32 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a statin (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin) to the blood thinner clopidogrel within 24 hours of a first major stroke can lower the chance of having another stroke within 90 days. About 600 adults aged 18-75 with a large-vessel ischemic stroke will take part. The goal is to see which statin works best and if the combination is safe.
