I agree with comment made by "Whats this face". Plavix is a strong blood thinner which prolong usage can lead to bleeding in the body. If I used it I would take only 1/2 a tablet each day.

Plavix caused me to have drug-induced Lupus. I am miserable with flu like symptoms, chills, fatigue, just feeling of like I either have the flu or am getting very sick. I am glad it seems to work for most people,

I’ve been taking Plavix for about 5 years, stopped for awhile on my own which was a big mistake. Had to have emergency bypass on femoral artery because of stopping. No side effects, take with an aspirin every day.

Comment from: booboobear 55-64 Female 5 to less than 10 years Patient Published: July 01

I took Plavix since an episode about 7 years ago at the direction of my Cardiologist. During that time, I had no significant side effects other than more pleading than normal when I would injure myself. About a month ago, while shaving, I cut a very small place -- almost microscopic -- on my face. It immediately started bleeding profusely. My wife and I patched it up and I headed off to a 7:15 am meeting. During the meeting, someone pointed out that my shirt collar and the upper part of the shirt on that side was drenched in blood. Needless to say, I left the meeting rather embarrased. I had another meeting at 11:00 with my boss's boss. At about 10:15, my wife and I still had not been able to stop the flow of blood. I subsequently went to a medical clinic where they applied Silver Nitrate for 30 minutes straight in order to get the bleeding to stop. I immediately left a message with my Cardiologist about what had happened, so we discontinued Plavix and started a low-dose aspirin per day. I am still mystified how I could go all those years and not have a problem like that until a month ago. I even had three surgeries during the time on Plavix with no notations of excessive bleeding. Stange stuff!

After taking this medication for 14 months I wound up bleeding from the large intestine and came very close to dying! I required 3 pints of blood and 2 saline solutions to get back to any resemblance to normal. This is a very dangerous drug that came awful close to killing me!
