Plavix Side Effects
Plavix side effects can appear serious so get emergency medical help if you have any of these
signs of an allergic reaction: hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Stop using Plavix and call your
doctor at once if you have any of these serious Plavix side effects: nosebleed
or other bleeding that will not stop, black, bloody, or tarry stools,
coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest pain
or heavy feeling, pain spreading to the arm or shoulder, nausea,
sweating, general ill feeling, sudden numbness or weakness, especially
on one side of the body, sudden headache, confusion, problems with
vision, speech, or balance, or pale skin, easy bruising or bleeding,
weakness, fever, and urinating more or less than usual.
Continue taking Plavix and talk to your doctor if you have any of these
less serious Plavix side effects: stomach pain, runny or stuffy nose, cough,
sore throat, or mild headache or dizziness.
Plavix is used to prevent blood
clots after a recent heart attack or stroke, and in people with certain
disorders of the heart or blood vessels. Plavix keeps the platelets in
your blood from coagulating (clotting) to prevent unwanted blood clots
that can occur with certain heart or blood vessel conditions. Plavix side effects other than those
listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any Plavix side effect
that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
Remember that all medications/drugs can cause gastrointestinal symptoms and can be toxic to your liver.
