The methods of this invention include a method for administering a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising a tocotrienol to a patient in need of restenosis prophylaxis and a method for preventing restenosis in a patient undergoing an arterial angioplastic procedure comprising the steps of: (a) coating the exterior surface of an angioplastic balloon with a composition comprising a tocotrienol; and (b) performing the arterial angioplastic procedure such that a prophylactically effective amount of the composition is transferred to the interior surface of the artery.
