Generic Name Clopidogrel Bisulphate
Strength 75 mg
Manufacturer Ad-din Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
Unit Price Unit Price: ৳ 12.00 (3 x 15: ৳ 540.00) Strip Price: ৳ 180.00

🔹 Indications

🔹 Pharmacology

Clopidogrel is a prodrug. It inhibits platelet activation and aggregation through the irreversible binding of its active metabolite to the P2Y12 class of ADP receptors on platelets. Dose-dependent inhibition of platelet aggregation can be seen 2 hours after single oral doses. Repeated doses of 75 mg per day inhibit ADP-induced platelet aggregation on the first day, and inhibition reaches steady state between Day 3 and Day 7.

🔹 Dosage & Administration

Acute Coronary Syndrome: In patients who need an antiplatelet effect within hours, initiate clopidogrel with a single 300 mg (4 tablets) oral loading dose and then continue at 75 mg once daily. Initiating it without a loading dose will delay establishment of an antiplatelet effect by several days.

Recent MI, Recent Stroke, or Established Peripheral Arterial Disease: 75 mg once daily orally without a loading dose.

It is given orally with or without food.

🔹 Interaction

  • NSAIDs, warfarin, selective serotonin and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs, SNRIs): Increases risk of bleeding
  • CYP2C19 inhibitors (omeprazole or esomeprazole): Avoid concomitant use of omeprazole or esomeprazole
  • Repaglinide (CYP2C8 substrates): Avoid concomitant use of Clogrel with Repaglinide as it increases plasma concentrations of Repaglinide

🔹 Contraindications

Clopidogrel is contraindicated in the following conditions: Hypersensitivity to the drug substance or any component of the product. Active pathological bleeding such as peptic ulcer or intracranial hemorrhage.

🔹 Side Effects

Clogrel is generally well tolerated drug.
  • Common side effects: Bleeding, Diarrhoea, gastrointestinal discomfort, haemorrhage, Skin reactions.
  • Rare side effects: Acquired haemophilia, anaemia, angioedema, arthralgia, arthritis, bone marrow disorders.

🔹 Pregnancy & Lactation

There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. It should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. It is unknown whether clopidogrel is excreted in human breast milk. A decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.

🔹 Precautions & Warnings

  • As it is a prodrug, so metabolism to its active metabolite is impaired by genetic variations in CYP2C19 (poor metabolizer) and by the drugs that inhibit CYP2C19 such as Omeprazole and Esomeprazole. Concomitant use with these drugs and in CYP2C19 poor metaboliser may reduce the antiplatelet activity of Clogrel.
  • As it inhibits platelet aggregation for the lifetime of the platelet (7-10 days), risk of bleeding may increase. To restore hemostasis, platelet transfusions within 4 hours of the loading dose or 2 hours of the maintenance dose may be less effective.
  • Discontinuation of Clogrel increases the risk of cardiovascular events. Discontinue 5 days prior to elective surgery that has a major risk of bleeding. Resume Clogrel as soon as hemostasis is achieved.
  • Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP) has been reported that requires urgent treatment including plasmapheresis (plasma exchange).
  • Hypersensitivity including rash, angioedema or hematologic reaction has been reported in patients receiving clopidogrel or history of hypersensitivity to other thienopyridines.

🔹 Pediatric Usage

Safety and effectiveness in pediatric populations have not been established. No dosage adjustment is necessary in elderly patients.

🔹 Storage Conditions

Keep below 30°C temperature in a dry place. Protected from light. Do not freeze. Keep out of the reach of children.
