Description:
Clavix Tablet is an antiplatelet medication that works as a blood thinner to prevent harmful blood clots from forming in blood vessels. It significantly reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes, making it a crucial medicine for individuals with heart disease. Clavix is typically prescribed for people at high risk of heart disease, patients with peripheral vascular disease (poor circulation), those with a history of heart attack or stroke, individuals with irregular heartbeats, and people who have had stent placements. It is also used in combination therapy for treating heart attacks and unstable angina.
The dosage is usually once daily, with or without food, and should be taken consistently at the same time each day. It is important not to stop the medication suddenly, as this could increase the risk of heart attack or stroke. Common side effects include an increased risk of bleeding (such as bruising, nosebleeds, and blood in the urine or stools) and prolonged bleeding from cuts or injuries. More serious side effects, like unusual or prolonged bleeding, severe headaches, dizziness, or signs of internal bleeding, should prompt immediate medical attention.
Precautions include avoiding Clavix if you have active bleeding conditions, blood clotting disorders, or have recently undergone major surgery or experienced a serious injury. You should also inform your doctor before any surgeries or dental procedures, as you may need to stop taking the medicine temporarily. Always follow your doctor’s instructions closely to maintain heart protection and avoid complications.
