I am advised lifelong consumption of Ecosprin 150 mg, Clopidogrel 75 mg, Allupurinol 300 mg ## Ecosprin contains Aspirin, commonly used to relieve pain, fever and as a blood thinner. Side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach irritation. Clopidogrel is used to help inhibit blood clotting. Side effects may include: nausea, hemorrhage and low white blood cell count. Allopurinol is primarily used to treat excess uric acid in the blood and its associated problems, such as gout. Side effects may include: nausea, fever and skin rash. Do you have any other questions? ## Difference between Clopitab 75 Clopitab A 150 and Clopitab A 75. In what case is each one prescribed? Does any of these cause pain in the leg and calf muscles. Request a reply for the same Thanks N Regar...

After being on this med for 7 years, I was told by my cardiologist to stop taking it. Now I am having various and odd ailments and wonder if they could be related to stopping this medication? ## Hello, Flea! How are you? Yes, they could be related to stopping it. Your body gets used to anything you ingest regularly for a long period of time and abruptly stopping can cause mild withdrawal symptoms. Some that are listed for this medication, by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure and body aches/pains. Are you on any other medications?

I have been taking clopidogrel 75mg + atorvastatin 10mg + metoprolol 10mg + telmisartan 40mg for the past 3 years since the date of my Bypass surgery. My doctor told me to use them life long, but are there any adverse effects that come with long term use? ## Hello, Krishna! How are you? To be quite honest and upfront, it is far more risky for you to stop taking them, if you have a heart condition, or high blood pressure. There are risks associated with the long-term use of any medication, according to NIH reports, but untreated high blood pressure, or heart issues could be fatal. Have you experienced any issues?

i was passing blood in urine ## Have you consulted your doctor? Deplatt-A contains Clopidogrel and Aspirin, it is used to prevent blood clotting and to thin the blood, thus one of its side effects is an increased risk of bleeding. If you are taking this and see blood in your urine, then you should consult with a doctor immediately, as that could be a sign that you have internal bleeding of some type.

Or do I leave it and carry on taking dosage tomorrow morning ## hello yes i am taking clopidogrel 75mg since i had a stent insertrd about 3 and a half years ago my cardio doc says i can stop tak8ng but i scared is this a good practice ## Hello, Fat cat! How are you? Yes, unless your doctor has instructed otherwise, you should take it as soon as you can today and then continue with your normal dosing schedule the next morning. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising. Alan, it is best to follow your doctor's instruc...

I have been on clopidogrel for 8 years after insertion of a stent. During this period I suffered the most painful cramping in my feet, legs and arms when performing moderate exercise. I recently visited my heart specialist who suggested that I may no longer need to take clopidogrel as a recent angiogram showed no significant blockages in my heart. I ceased taking clopidogrel and no longer suffer any cramping. The suffering I have endured for 8 years while on clopidogrel should be a warning to others. If I had been able to exercise without cramping it may well have been as beneficial as taking this drug. ## Hello, Bill! How are you doing? Wow! That's terrible, I'm glad you finally figured out what was causing it. Muscle aches and stiffness are known side effects, as listed by the...

I have recently had lots of anal bleeding, headaches, blood in nose. Today I called my doctor and he advised me to stop taking the effient and aspirin. He has given me a prescription for plavix today. This is a scary drug for me... ## Plavix contains Clopidogrel, which works a little differently, rather than thinning the blood to cause bleeding, it just inhibits clotting. That means you still need to be careful not to injure yourself, but there is less chance of the random bleeding like you were experiencing. Learn more Plavix details here. What are you taking it to treat? ## I have opted out of all the drugs that the cardiologist prescribed. I am now being treated by a naturalpathic doctor. Its much better and I'm no longer sick. The drugs were doing more damage than the heart atta...

i have suffered blood clotting in brain in aug 2009 since then i m taking tazloc h,-40 clopivas 75 atorva 10(once a day) please guide me precautious measures to minimise the side affects of medicines Tejinder ## What specific side effects are you having problems with? Learn more Atorvastatin details here. Learn more Telmisartan details here. Learn more Hydrochlorothiazide details here. Learn more Clopidogrel details here. The reason I ask is because if you have been taking them for a long time, then most of the side effects should have worn off by now and should only reappear when you increase the dosage or change a medication.

For 6 months I visited my doctor who did angioplasty for me. On the 6th month my doctor prescribed me DEPLATT-CV (one capsule a day). On both of my legs below the ankle swelling occurs. Is it because of this capsule administered to me? It contains Atorvastatin which was discontinued by my doctor earlier due to the same problem (now experienced in legs) in my palm and fingers. In my case, I feel that the Atorvastatin component in DEPLATT-CV is the reason behind it. Has anyone else been met with such a problem before? Please reply. ## Deplatt-CV contains Aspirin, Atorvastatin and Clopidogrel, it is used to prevent clotting, thin the blood and reduce cholesterol. And yes, the Atorvastatin could cause the edema/fluid retention that you are experiencing. One thing you can do, on your own, to...

i was prescribed Clopidogrel 75 after a suspected TIA. All completed tests results were normal but i suffer from post-polio syndrome and have muscle weakness in both upper and lower limbs. Since taking Clopidogrel i have experienced symptoms similar to flu symptoms, which diminished a few days after stopping the medication. I also feel very lethargic and fatigued whilst on the medication. Any explanation? i am reluctant to take the medication firstly because the TIA was not proved to have taken place and secondly because i feel so ill whilst on it. ## All medications carry the risk of causing side effects, and the NIH does list those as being possible ones from this medication, along with dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and easy bruising. Have they checked your clotting...
