Sex differences in prescription patterns of secondary prevention pharmacotherapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a 20-year insight from the AMIS Plus registry

Aims

Recent studies have demonstrated sex-related differences in secondary prevention pharmacotherapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction, although guidelines recommend the same preventive approach in both women and men. This study builds upon previous research by examining temporal trends in prescribing patterns of secondary prevention medications using contemporary, long-term data from Switzerland, with particular focus on sex-related disparities.
