Clopidogrel is used to lower your risk of having a stroke, blood clot, or serious heart problem after you have had a heart attack, severe chest pain (angina), or blood circulation problems. Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug and helps in the smooth flow of blood through your vessels (arteries and veins). It works by preventing the blood platelets from sticking together to form a clot. The drug is known to provide additional benefits to the patients with acute coronary symptoms and who are already taking aspirin.

How to take it

The tablet needs to be taken orally without cutting or crushing, as prescribed by the physician. Clopidogrel can sometimes be taken with aspirin. You may need to stop taking Clopidogrel before a surgery or dental work.

Dosage

Clopidogrel oral tablet is used for long-term treatment and can cause you serious risks such as heart attack if you do not take it as advised by your doctor or stop taking it altogether. Clopidogrel is available in the strengths of 75 mg and 300 mg.

Precautions and side effects

Clopidogrel has a Black Box warning from FDA which alerts the doctors and patients of its potentially harmful effects. Your doctor might change your medication if you have genetic difference in your liver enzyme as Clopidogrel breaks down in the liver and genetic difference can slow down the process. The medication can cause you nosebleeds which will take longer than usual to stop. Clopidogrel is not advised for the individuals with active bleeding or those with stomach or bowel ulcer.
