Clopid-AS 75 mg + 75 mg

Acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina, heart attack) and after coronary stenting, in patients who need both clopidogrel and aspirin.

Clopidogrel blocks the P2Y12 ADP receptor on platelets and aspirin blocks thromboxane A2 formation. Acting on two different pathways, the combination gives stronger inhibition of platelet aggregation than either drug alone.

Adult: one tablet (clopidogrel 75 mg + aspirin 75 mg) once daily, after food. The duration of treatment is decided by the physician.

Bleeding (bruising, nosebleed, gastrointestinal bleeding), indigestion, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, nausea and rash.

The risk of bleeding is higher than with either drug alone. Use with caution in asthma, history of peptic ulcer, renal impairment and with anticoagulants or NSAIDs. Inform the doctor before any surgery.

Active bleeding, active peptic ulcer, bleeding disorders, severe hepatic impairment, hypersensitivity to either component or to NSAIDs, children under 16 years and the last trimester of pregnancy.

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from light. Keep out of the reach of children.
