Question:
Ideal time to stop clopidogrel before tooth extraction?
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet agent included in the prophylaxis of CAD.
Answers:
Usually one week to 10 days prior to surgery, but please check with your Doctor first. Because, if you have any drug eluding stents you will be at risk for increased clotting, and should not stop the medication unless supervised by a physician. Good Luck ;--)
