Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of cilostazol in preventing recurrence of cerebral infarction and the safety of long-term administration of the drug (100 mg, twice daily) in patients with cerebral infarction (excluding cardiogenic cerebral embolism) in a multi-center, double-blind, parallel-group comparison with aspirin (81 mg, once daily).
