WHAT IS PLAVIX USED
FOR
PLAVIX CONTAINS THE MEDICINE
CLOPIDOGREL. PLAVIX BELONGS TO A
GROUP OF MEDICINES CALLED ANTI-
PLATELET MEDICINES.
Platelets are very small blood cells
which clump together during blood
clotting. By preventing this
clumping, anti-platelet medicines
reduce the chances of blood clots
forming (a process called
thrombosis).
Plavix is used to prevent blood clots
forming in hardened blood vessels (a
process known as atherothrombosis)
which can lead to events such as
stroke, heart attack or death.
You may have been prescribed
Plavix to help prevent blood clots
forming and to reduce the risk of
stroke, heart attack and death
because:
•
YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY SUFFERED A
HEART ATTACK, STROKE OR HAVE A
CONDITION KNOWN AS PERIPHERAL
ARTERIAL DISEASE (LEG PAIN ON
WALKING OR AT REST).
•
YOU HAVE SUFFERED ACUTE
CORONARY SYNDROME (EITHER A
SEVERE TYPE OF CHEST PAIN CALLED
UNSTABLE ANGINA, OR A HEART
ATTACK). IN THIS CASE YOU MAY
ALSO BE PRESCRIBED ASPIRIN.
Your doctor may have prescribed this
medicine for another use. If you
want more information, ask your
doctor.
Plavix is only available on a doctor's
prescription.
