Clocard A 75mg+75mg Tablet

✔️ Composition

✔️ Dosage and Administration

• Take Clocard A exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
• For certain adult indications, a combination containing clopidogrel 75 mg and aspirin 75 mg is taken once daily.
• The dose and duration depend on the condition being treated and the patient's bleeding risk.
• Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush or chew it unless the product instructions specifically permit this.
• Taking the medicine with food may help reduce stomach discomfort.
• Do not stop taking Clocard A without consulting your doctor, as stopping antiplatelet treatment prematurely may increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke.

Important: Loading doses may be used in specific acute coronary conditions under medical supervision. Do not take extra tablets to start treatment or replace a missed dose without medical advice.

✔️ Clocard A should generally not be used in patients with:

• Active pathological bleeding, such as an active peptic ulcer or intracranial hemorrhage
• Known hypersensitivity to clopidogrel, aspirin, or other ingredients
• A history of severe aspirin- or NSAID-related allergic reactions, where aspirin is contraindicated

Severe liver or kidney disease requires careful specialist assessment. The product-specific prescribing information should be checked before treatment.

✔️ Tell your doctor before using Clocard A if you have:

• A history of stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding
• A bleeding disorder or low platelet count
• Kidney or liver disease
• Uncontrolled high blood pressure
• Asthma or a history of allergic reactions to aspirin or other NSAIDs
• A planned surgery, dental procedure, or other invasive procedure

Clocard A increases the risk of bleeding. Use caution when shaving, cutting nails, or handling sharp objects. Inform healthcare professionals that you take this medicine before any procedure.

Do not discontinue it before surgery without instructions from your treating clinician. The timing of any interruption depends on the procedure and the risk of clotting.

✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation

Consult your doctor before using Clocard A during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The benefits and risks depend on the clinical indication, pregnancy stage, and individual circumstances. Do not start or stop antiplatelet treatment during pregnancy without specialist advice.

✔️ Interaction

Clocard A may interact with medicines that increase bleeding risk or affect the action of either ingredient.

Important examples include:

• Anticoagulants: Warfarin, dabigatran, and other blood thinners
• Other antiplatelet medicines: Including additional aspirin or clopidogrel products
• NSAIDs: Ibuprofen, naproxen, and similar pain relievers
• Certain antidepressants: SSRIs and SNRIs may increase bleeding risk
• Some stomach-acid medicines: Omeprazole and esomeprazole may reduce clopidogrel activation
• Other medicines: Corticosteroids and selected supplements, including ginkgo biloba, may increase bleeding risk

Do not start painkillers, supplements, or other blood-thinning medicines without checking with your doctor or pharmacist.
