How does the Drug work
◉Clopidogrel 75mg is a medication that belongs to the class of antiplatelet drugs. It works by inhibiting the function of platelets, which are blood cells responsible for forming clots to stop bleeding.
◉ Clopidogrel works by blocking a specific receptor on the surface of platelets called the P2Y12 receptor. When platelets are activated, they release chemicals that cause the P2Y12 receptor to become active, leading to further platelet activation and the formation of blood clots.
◉ By blocking the P2Y12 receptor, clopidogrel reduces platelet activation and prevents the formation of blood clots. This is particularly important in preventing blood clots that can cause heart attacks and strokes in people with a history of cardiovascular disease or those at risk for developing it.
◉ It is important to note that clopidogrel should only be taken as directed by a healthcare provider, as it can increase the risk of bleeding and interact with other medications.
