If you have experienced severe chest pain (unstable angina or heart attack), your doctor may give you 300 mg or 600mg of Clopidogrel (4 or 8 tablets of 75 mg) once at the start of treatment. Then, the recommended dose is one 75 mg tablet of Clopidogrel per day as described above.
If you have experienced symptoms of a stroke which go away within a short period of time (also known as transient ischemic attack) or an ischemic stroke mild in severity, your doctor may give you 300 mg of Clopidogrel (4 tablets of 75 mg) once at the start of treatment. Then, the recommended dose is one 75 mg tablet of Clopidogrel per day as described above with acetylsalicylic acid for 3 weeks.

You should take Clopidogrel for as long as your doctor continues to prescribe it.
Product Details
Product Information of Clopidogrel Tablets 75mg
What you need to know before you take Clopidogrel
Do not take Clopidogrel
- If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to clopidogrel or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- If you have a medical condition that is currently causing bleeding such as a stomach ulcer or bleeding within the brain;
- If you suffer from severe liver disease.
If you think any of these apply to you, or if you are in any doubt at all, consult your doctor before taking Clopidogrel.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Clopidogrel:
- if you have a risk of bleeding such as
- a medical condition that puts you at risk of internal bleeding (such as a stomach ulcer).
- a blood disorder that makes you prone to internal bleeding (bleeding inside any tissues, organs or joints of your body).
- a recent serious injury.
- a recent surgery (including dental).
- a planned surgery (including dental) in the next seven days.
- if you have had a clot in an artery of your brain (ischemic stroke) which occurred within the last seven days.
- if you have kidney or liver disease.
- if you have had an allergy or reaction to any medicine used to treat your disease.
- if you had a past medical history of non-traumatic brain hemorrhage.
While you are taking Clopidogrel:
- You should tell your doctor if a surgery (including dental) is planned.
- You should also tell your doctor immediately if you develop a medical condition (also known as Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura or TTP) that includes fever and bruising under the skin that may appear as red pinpoint dots, with or without unexplained extreme tiredness, confusion, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice) (see section 4 ‘Possible side effects’).
- If you cut or injure yourself, it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. This is linked to the way your medicine works as it prevents the ability of blood clots to form. For minor cuts and injuries e.g. cutting yourself shaving, this is usually of no concern. However, if you are concerned by your bleeding, you should contact your doctor straightaway (see section 4 ‘Possible side effects’).
- Your doctor may order blood tests.
