If you've been
here before,
PLAVIX could help keep you from coming back.
PLAVIX can help save lives for those who've had a heart attack caused by a completely blocked artery.
Clots that
block off arteries are the
main cause of heart attack. And now
that you've had a heart attack you are
at a greater risk of having another that
can be fatal. That's why your doctor
may put you on PLAVIX along w ith your
other
heart medicines. Taking
PLAVIX
w ith your other heart medicines goes
beyond w hat
other
heart
medicines
alone can do to keep blood platelets
from
sticking
together
and
form ing
dangerous clots.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: If you have a stomach ulcer or other condition that causes bleeding, you should not use PLAVIX.
When taking PLAVIX alone or with some other medicines including aspirin, the risk of bleeding may increase so tell your doctor
before planning surgery. And, always talk to your doctor before taking aspirin or other medicines with PLAVIX, especially if
you've had a stroke. If you develop fever, unexplained weakness or confusion, tell your doctor promptly as these may be signs
of a rare but potentially life-threatening condition called TTP, which has been reported rarely, sometimes in less than 2 weeks
after starting therapy. Other rare but serious side effects may occur.
Ask your doctor how PLAVIX can help increase your protection against future heart attack, stroke, and even death.
