Your doctor will suggest the exact duration for which you may have to take Clopitex-A 150 Capsule. The duration will be decided after considering various factors like the illness you are being treated for, type of stent inserted, any episodes of bleeding experienced by you during treatment, etc. Usually, Clopitex-A 150 Capsule is prescribed for a minimum duration of 1 year. However, it is advised to follow your doctor's advice precisely to get maximum benefit of Clopitex-A 150 Capsule. Do not stop the medication on your own, consult your doctor first.

What is the most important information I need to know about Clopitex-A 150 Capsule?
Clopitex-A 150 Capsule may cause serious or life-threatening bleeding. Moreover, you may bruise easily and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop even if you have a minor injury like a small cut while shaving. Get emergency medical help if you notice excessive or prolonged bleeding. You should inform your doctor if you notice black tarry stools or if there is blood in the urine. Be vigilant on any signs of stroke such as sudden numbness or weakness (one side or both sides of the body), difficulty walking, mental confusion, slurred speech, dizziness and any unexplained headache. Contact your doctor immediately if you develop any such signs of stroke as stroke is an uncommon side effect of Clopitex-A 150 Capsule and needs urgent medical attention as it can otherwise be fatal.
Do I need to stop Clopitex-A 150 Capsule before surgery?
Your doctor will decide whether you need to stop taking Clopitex-A 150 Capsule before any surgery or treatment or not. Usually, if a surgery or treatment is planned beforehand, the doctor may stop Clopitex-A 150 Capsule a few days (usually 7 days) before the surgery or treatment owing to the increased risk of bleeding during the procedure. You should not stop taking Clopitex-A 150 Capsule on your own without discussing it with your doctor.
Who should not take Clopitex-A 150 Capsule?
Clopitex-A 150 Capsule is not recommended for people who are allergic to it or any of its ingredients. Do not take Clopitex-A 150 Capsule if you have or ever had severe liver disease, stomach ulcers, bleeding in the brain (stroke or a transient ischemic attack, also known as TIA), or if you have a bleeding disorder known as hemophilia (disease in which blood does not clot normally). Additionally, avoid taking Clopitex-A 150 Capsule if you are trying to get pregnant, already pregnant, or breastfeeding.
What if I forget to take a dose of Clopitex-A 150 Capsule?
If you forget to take a dose of Clopitex-A 150 Capsule, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one as this may increase the chances of developing side effects.
What should I avoid while taking Clopitex-A 150 Capsule?
Avoid activities that may increase your chances of bleeding. Be extra careful while shaving or brushing your teeth to prevent bleeding. Also, you should avoid taking painkillers, but if you need to take one like ibuprofen for joint pain, headache, backache, etc. then consult your doctor first. This is because taking pain killers with Clopitex-A 150 Capsule may increase your chances of developing a stomach ulcer and bleeding. Refrain from taking excessive alcohol with Clopitex-A 150 Capsule as it can irritate your stomach and lead to a stomach ulcer as well.
