Ticabid 90mg Tablet 10

Ticabid Tablet is used to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes in high-risk adults, particularly those with a history of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). It works by preventing blood platelets from sticking together, reducing the risk of blood clots forming in blood vessels. It is often prescribed alongside low-dose aspirin as part of therapy to manage cardiovascular risk, but it does not guarantee prevention of events.

The steps to take Ticabid Tablet are as follows:

• Follow the dosage and timing instructions provided by your doctor precisely.

• Do not change or exceed the prescribed dose without consulting your doctor.

• Consult your doctor before discontinuing the medication; do not stop taking it without their guidance.

• Adhere to the dietary recommendations given by your doctor.

Ticabid Tablet is taken orally.

Ticabid Tablet contains Ticagrelor (90 mg). Here's how it works:

• Prevents ADP Binding: Ticagrelor prevents the binding of adenosine diphosphate (ADP), a kind of molecule, to P2Y12 receptors on platelets. Platelets are tiny cells in the blood that help in forming clots to stop bleeding.

• Reduces Platelet Activation and Aggregation: By blocking ADP from binding to the P2Y12 receptors, Ticagrelor reduces the activation and aggregation of platelets, which are critical steps in clot formation.

• Lowers Risk of Arterial Thrombus: By inhibiting platelet aggregation, Ticagrelor decreases the chances of developing an arterial thrombus or clot that could block blood vessels and cause heart attacks or strokes.

• Store Ticabid Tablet at a cool temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep the tablets in their original packaging to safeguard them from moisture.

• Ensure the medicine is kept out of reach of children.

• Always check the expiry date before use.

• As this medication is primarily used for heart conditions, maintaining a balanced diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol can support your heart health.

• Regular gentle exercise like walking or cycling can help manage your condition effectively. However, remember to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regime.
