drug_recall plavixPlavix (clopidogrel bisulfate) is a blood anti-coagulant that works by preventing blood platelets from clustering, or clotting. Because of its blood thinning effect, doctors often prescribe a combination of Plavix and aspirin to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and other circulatory problems. However, recent studies have found that Plavix can actually double the risk of heart attack or stroke in those who have no history of cardiac events.
If you or a loved one has taken Plavix and suffered a heart attack, stroke, or other injury, you may be eligible to seek compensation for your losses through a Plavix lawsuit.

Plavix and Aspirin: What You Should Know
Doctors widely prescribe Plavix and aspirin, despite the many risks associated with the popular blood-thinning drug. Some of the serious risks and side effects associated with Plavix include the following:
Research has shown that Plavix offers no benefit over traditional low-dose aspirin therapy, and researchers have thus concluded that individuals taking Plavix and aspirin as part of a preventative treatment plan would do better to stick to aspirin alone.
Plavix and the Law
The manufacturers of Plavix -- Sanofi-Aventis and Bristol-Myers Squibb -- failed to provide adequate warnings on the drug�s initial labeling. Regrettably, millions of Americans have subsequently been prescribed Plavix and aspirin as part of a treatment regimen intended to prevent heart attacks.
