AB  - Clopidogrel as a potent antiplatelet agent is administered in patients with ST 
      elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The efficacy and safety of 2 clopidogrel 
      loading regimen (300 mg vs 600 mg) in STEMI patients undergoing a primary 
      percutaneous coronary intervention is still under investigation. The purpose of 
      this article is to highlight current knowledge and guidelines regarding 
      clopidogrel loading dose and also time of administration in STEMI setting and 
      before primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
