MEDICATION GUIDE
Clopidogrel Tablets USP
Read this Medication Guide before you start taking clopidogrel tablets
and each time you get a refill.
There may be new information. This Medication Guide does not take the
place of talking with your
doctor about your medical condition or your treatment.
What is the most important information I should know about clopidogrel
tablets?
1. Clopidogrel tablets may not work as well in people who:
•
have certain genetic factors that affect how the body breaks down
clopidogrel tablets. Your doctor
may do genetic tests to make sure clopidogrel tablets are right for
you.
•
take certain medicines, especially omeprazole (Prilosec®) or
esomeprazole (Nexium®). Your
doctor may change the medicine you take for stomach acid problems
while you take clopidogrel
tablets.
2. Clopidogrel tablets can cause bleeding which can be serious and can
sometimes lead to death.
Clopidogrel tablets are a blood thinner medicine that lowers the
chance of blood clots forming in your
body. While you take clopidogrel tablets:
•
you may bruise and bleed more easily
•
you are more likely to have nose bleeds
•
it will take longer for any bleeding to stop
Call your doctor right away if you have any of these signs or symptoms
of bleeding:
•
unexpected bleeding or bleeding that lasts a long time
•
blood in your urine (pink, red or brown urine)
•
red or black stools (looks like tar)
•
bruises that happen without a known cause or get larger
•
cough up blood or blood clots
•
vomit blood or your vomit looks like coffee grounds
Do not stop taking clopidogrel tablets without talking to the doctor
who prescribes them for you. People
who stop taking clopidogrel tablets too soon have a higher risk of
having a heart attack or dying. If you
must stop clopidogrel tablets because of bleeding, your risk of a
heart attack may be higher.
