AB  - Acute  Coronary  Syndrome  (ACS)  is  a  set  of  cardiovascular  diagnoses  that  have  similar  underlying  pathophysiology,  involving  atherosclerosis  and  acute  thrombosis.  In  the  United  States,  cardiovascular  disease,  including  ACS,  is  the  single  leading  cause  of  death  among  males  and  females.1  Over  900,000  patients  present  with  ACS  each  year,  with  mortality  ranging  from  3%  to  15%  depending  on  the  subtype  of  ACS.1  The  prevalence  of  ACS  makes  knowledge  of  appropriate  treatment  of  great  importance  to  both  inpatient  and  community  pharmacists.
