Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test the impact of a multidisciplinary approach to improve the adhesion and persistence to Clopidogrel therapy. A simple and inexpensive therapy management involving a tighter monitoring of patients by nurses and pharmacists will improve the persistence and adhesion to Clopidogrel and Aspirin after the implantation of drug-eluting stents.
