"I was taking this medication from Nov.2021 until Feb. 22 2022 when the doctor stopped it. I developed problems with my fingers turning blue and white during extreme cold weather. 30 years ago my hands became frozen during backcountry skiing. This didn't bother me until taking Clopidogrel which I just discovered was most likely the cause by checking online. My fingernails became brittle recently. 75mg once a day in pill form It was given as a blood thinner. - I don't know if it worked but I take another blood thinner and assume one of them worked, I don't know."

Plavix (clopidogrel) "I had a stent put in April 2023. I have been on Plavix and a chewable baby aspirin since then. I have no ill effects from the Plavix. I also have PAD which the Plavix helps. Occasional bruising but nothing of any significance."
