drug used to prevent blood clots, often in combination with acetylsalicylae (<a href=\"https:\/\/jegharkraeft.dk\/en\/aspirin\/\">aspirin<\/a>). However, like other drugs that affect blood circulation and inflammation, dipyridamole has also been the subject of research in connection with cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_dipyridamole_can_affect_cancer\"><\/span>How dipyridamole can affect cancer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dipyridamole and platelets<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Inhibits platelet aggregation:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dipyridamole prevents platelets from clumping together.
