    Platelet aggregation inhibitors such as Clopidogrel are essential medications for individuals with certain cardiovascular and peripheral vascular diseases. It works by blocking the action of ADP, a substance in the blood that causes the platelets to stop sticking together and decreases the chance of blood clots forming. This helps to reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes in people with cardiovascular disease, and strokes in people with peripheral vascular disease. Clopidogrel is actually a prodrug, a substance that is metabolized in the body to form a drug with the desired action. It is converted to its active metabolite by the liver through the enzyme CYP2C19. This enzyme is therefore critical to the effectiveness of Clopidogrel, and factors that influence CYP2C19 activity can affect the individual response to clopidogrel.Because many factors can influence its activity, the activity of platelet aggregation inhibitors can vary greatly between individuals. As such, its use should always be optimized for each patient under the guidance of a trained healthcare professional.

    Clopidogrel is a medication that is typically prescribed to those who have had a heart attack or who are at risk for serious blood clots. It is a generic medication with several brands, and it is typically taken once daily to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other issues related to the heart and blood vessels. This medication is a prescription drug and not available over the counter. Clopidogrel is a platelet aggregation inhibitor, meaning it helps prevent blood cells called platelets from clustering together to form a blood clot. It is important to take clopidogrel consistently in order to achieve the necessary level of blood thinning and prevention of clotting. This medication typically comes in tablet form and should be stored at room temperature in its original container, away from moisture, heat, and direct light. It is important to keep clopidogrel out of the sight and reach of children and pets, and to avoid storing it in the bathroom due to humidity. You should follow the instructions given by your doctor or pharmacist regarding timing and dosage, and any instructions regarding food and drink. If you have any questions or concerns about your clopidogrel prescription or its storage, you should consult your physician or pharmacist.
