Aspirin Plus Dipyridamole Versus Aspirin for Prevention of Vascular Events After Stroke or TIA: A Meta-Analysis
Stroke 39:1358-1363, Verro,P.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The combination of aspirin plus dipyridamole is more effective than aspirin alone in preventing stroke and other serious vascular events in patients with minor stroke and TIAs. The risk reduction was greater and statistically significant for studies using primarily extended release dipyridamole, which may reflect a true pharmacological effect or lack of statistical power in studies using immediate release dipyridamole.
