WHAT CLOPIDOGREL/ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID ZENTIVA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED
FOR
Clopidogrel/Acetylsalicylic acid Zentiva contains clopidogrel and
acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and
belongs to a group of medicines called antiplatelet medicinal
products. Platelets are very small
structures in the blood which clump together during blood clotting. By
preventing this clumping in
some types of blood vessels (called arteries), antiplatelet medicinal
products reduce the chances of
blood clots forming (a process called atherothrombosis).
Clopidogrel/Acetylsalicylic acid Zentiva is taken by adults to prevent
blood clots forming in hardened
arteries which can lead to atherothrombotic events (such as stroke,
heart attack, or death).

place of the two separate
medicines, clopidogrel and ASA, to help prevent blood clots because
