Hello, Thanks for the query.
Usually Clopidogrel is to be taken usually for over 12 months, occasionally it is continued for up tp 18 months. It is better to consult your cardiologist or physician who has prescribed it. As regards statin, it depends upon the LDL level. Sometimes it is recommended for very long time or to be continued for life long. Thanks.
