MEDICATION GUIDE
Clopidogrel Tablets, USP
(kloe pid' oh grel)
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. 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 is 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 it 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.
