I had a cardiac arrest 3-1/2 months ago. I had manageable hair before. Now my hair won't hold a curl and just lays flat ever since. I have tried everything. Is this related? I take only Clopidogrel and Losartan daily. ## Yes, many medications can cause this issue with your hair, they may also cause hair loss, according to FDA reports, along with nausea, dizziness, and increased urination. Have you changed anything else about your hair care routine and diet, or just the new medications? I've found the Aussie products work well for mine, since I am also taking Losartan with other blood pressure medications, but I usually have to skip conditioner most days, since it weighs my hair down.

I've been on 75mg Clopidogrel daily for the past month. My hair is falling out at an alarming rate, losing appetite/weight. Clopidogrel replaced the Plavix I was taking since last august. Help! ## Have you consulted your doctor? This isn't a known side effect of Clopidogrel and you should consult your doctor to get a better idea of what's causing it and a possible solution. ## I have been on the generic Plavix (clopidogrel) for about three months and my hair is also coming out by the handsful. ## On clopidogrel for over a month and my hair is falling out!

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?

Manufacturer: Dr.Reddy's Laboratories Limited The other pill with this same marking is identified as Cetirizine hydrochloride 5 mg; an antihistamines used to treat cold or allergy symptoms.

Small round orange pill maybe light brown and 41 on one side with nothing on the other side. ## This tablet is manufactured by Torrent Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 75mgs of Clopidogrel, which is most commonly used to help prevent blood clotting.

Can I use Ecospirin 75 indtead of Clopilet 75 ? ## Hello, Souvic! How are you? They are not the same and don't work in the same ways, so you should take whichever one your doctor has told you to take.

Will Clopilet cause GI tract bleeding with long term use? ## Clopilet contains the active ingredient Clopidogrel, it is used to help inhibit blood clotting. It can increase the risk of bleeding, but there is no way to say that it will or will not cause any particular type of bleeding in any particular person. Medications can affect everyone differently. Have you spoken to your doctor about your concerns? ## How long can clopilet 75mg be used? Are there any side effects from it if used for a long time? ## I've been taking clopilet for six months for heart blockage. Now I am suffering from a burning sensation near my rectum. Could this be a side effect of clopilet?

Am 78 and had 2 stents put in 6-1/2 years ago. Taking Plavix 75 mg and aspirin 81 mg. Gradually have seen darkening of skin on the ankles. /seems micro hemorrhaging under the skin. Does any one know if the could be a side effect of taking these drug? ## Yes, it certainly could be due to blood thinning that these medications are causing, according to NIH reports, they can also cause easy bruising as a side effect. Why are you taking both, since they essentially do that same thing, though? Are you on any other medications? Did your doctor instruct you to take both?

Hi. I was advised to take Clopilet 75 by one of the doctors when I had a mild chest discomfort. I was later told to stop it after taking it for nearly 4 months as it was causing hyperacidity and TMT was negative. Please let me know if it is good advice to stop taking it. If stopped, what are the chances of having any heart problems? So far I don't have any heart problems. Thanks. ## I'll explain a little, so maybe I can help you understand the associated risks of stopping a medication like this abruptly. Clopilet contains the active ingredient Clopidogrel, which is used to prevent blood clotting. If you take it for several months and stop it abruptly, there is a chance that it could cause a rebound effect, which means that it could cause your blood to clot too much, which may le...
