Feeling better doesn't mean you're not at risk

Sometimes people think that after a month or so of treating their condition, they're healed. They may feel better, so they don't always continue with their heart medications. However, no matter how good you feel, you're still at risk for a future heart attack or stroke. Your risk never goes away. Talk to your doctor about this risk and continue taking PLAVIX and your other heart medications as your doctor prescribed.

PLAVIX starts working soon after you take it and will continue to help protect you as long as you take it as your doctor prescribes.

What to do next:

PLAVIX is a prescription medicine recommended for people who have suffered from a recent stroke or recent heart attack or have been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease, or P.A.D. (poor circulation in the legs).*

Always talk to your doctor before taking aspirin or other medicines with PLAVIX, especially if you?ve had a stroke.

*PLAVIX is not indicated for the treatment of symptoms of P.A.D.
