Plavix (clopidogrel): I've been using Plavix for a couple years now since I had 2 angioplasties.
It work just fine. However some of the drawbacks are:
- easy bruising, and long recover time
- easy bleeding from injuries, so don't take chances
- My Doctor told me I'd have to take Plavix for the rest of my life
- cost is no concern since my insurance pays all but $9.00
per month

Plavix (clopidogrel): A great deal of bloating and some digestive discomfort. Every few weeks it feels like I am getting a bad head cold, then it goes away. I hope it's doing the trick!

Plavix (clopidogrel): I guess it is working great to relieve the possibility of clots, for I have no sign of a clot returning. However, I am covered in bruises and my stomach is knots more, I feel bloated and uncomfortable. I am unable to drink even a small amount of coffee in the morning, even a few hours after having taken the dose. That being said, I have to take it for at least a year after my heart attack, so I guess I have to deal with these side effects.
