Clopiklot A Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Clopiklot A Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

• Aspirin (75 mg): This component works by permanently blocking an enzyme in your body known as cyclooxygenase (COX). The COX enzyme aids in producing substances called prostaglandins and thromboxane A2 which contribute to clot formation and constrict blood vessels. By inhibiting COX, aspirin effectively reduces the risk of blood clot formation.

• Clopidogrel (75 mg): This ingredient is classified as a prodrug, which means it needs to be converted into its active form within the body. Once activated in the liver, it prevents a substance called adenosine diphosphate (ADP) from binding to its platelet receptor known as P2Y12. This action inhibits platelet activation and aggregation, thereby reducing clot formation.

• Store Clopiklot A Tablet 10 at room temperature.

• Keep the medicine in a dry place, protected from light and moisture.

• Be sure to keep it out of reach of children.

• Avoid foods high in saturated fats and cholesterol as these can contribute to the development of atherosclerosis, a condition Clopiklot A Tablet 10 helps to manage. Opt instead for fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, and low-fat dairy products.

• Regular physical activity can help improve cardiovascular health. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking or cycling, most days of the week.
