Lipvas 20 MG Tablet Health Feed

Health Query

Hi Sir, For how many years should I take clopidogrel A 75 and atorvastatin 20 mg. I got one stent inserted for 15 to 20% blockage as seen by thallium. 13 years back. Now my lipid profile is normal.

Stop clopidogrel after discussing with your Dr. Two blood thinners are required for about one year of stent. They can usually be reduced to aspirin alone after that. Atorva 20 can be reduced too, but better to do so 12 weeks after improving diet. Traditional balanced diet is healthier for heart than restricted modern diet. Beat wishes.

lybrate-user, Lipicure tablet is given in a person who has increased lipid level (cholesterol) particularly total cholesterol, LDL & Triglycerides. In a person with diabetes most often there dyslipidemia (increased lipids). Therefore such a tablet is given. Fenofibrate is more often used when triglycerides are increased. Thanks.
