Dad is suffering from mini strokes and has over 50 percent blockage in two main arteries. Plavix has been perscribed. I've read that some blood thinners are better taken at supper time. Is this true for PLAVIX?
Is there a better time of the day to take PLAVIX?

It does not matter what time of day you take Plavix. It can be taken with or without food. Choose a time of day that works well for you, a time where you are most likely to remember, and take the Plavix at around that same time each day.
