Dipyridamol does not have a proven, clinically significant antithrombotic effect. Treatment is relatively expensive. Dipyridamol can cause ischaemia of the heart muscle in patients with ischaemic heart disease. Dipyridamol administration as part of antithrombotic treatment should therefore be selective. Large does can be used as a supplementary loading test for detection of the ischaemic focus.
