Antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapy are two mainstays in the treatment of patients with ischemic strokes. While aspirin has been established as the first-line antiplatelet drug in acute ischemic stroke, the superiority of combination antiplatelet therapy over monotherapy with aspirin or other antiplatelet agents in early stage ischemic stroke has recently been shown. Anticoagulation therapy for acute ischemic stroke may worsen outcomes due to intracranial hemorrhage, and therefore, the indications for, and timing of initiating anticoagulants should always be considered. For the secondary prevention of non-cardiogenic ischemic stroke, aspirin, clopidogrel, cilostazole, or ticlopidine can be considered in Japan. Although warfarin has long been used for the prevention of cardiogenic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation, several types of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are now commonly used. NOACs are equally effective for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolization compared with warfarin, but are superior to warfarin in terms of the risk for intracranial hemorrhage. The safety of NOACs in patients with impaired renal function, the elderly, and those with below-normal weight is not well established and these factors need to be considered when NOACs are prescribed.
