Plavix (in lieu of baby aspirin). Is it safe?

Post by LydiaS »

The cardiologist said it is okay to take Plavix as a substitute for baby aspirin. Does anyone know if Plavix is safe?

The natural alternative to aspirin is the proteolytic enzyme, Lumbrokinase. Does anyone know if that is safe?

Thanks.

I have no experience with Lumbrokinase, but I've been taking Plavix (or clopidogrel bisulfate, a generic substitute) for 10 years as a step up from baby aspirin. As far as I'm aware, it's safe.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
