Candestarten and clopidogrel

hello , I’ve been taking clopidogrel for about five years along with Candestarten, I usually take it about half five in the afternoon

I also take Adizam and ravostatin in the morning , not a huge amount of medication I grant you but recently when I take the afternoon dose it’s like someone’s draining my energy almost like a crazy weakness

And the I did the usual Google thing apparently you shouldn’t take Candestarten and clopidogrel at the same time 🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyone any experience they can Shen on this until I get to talk to my doctor please 🤔

Hello , im currently taking CLOPIDOGREL in the morning and ASTORVASTATIN just before going to bed. This was advised by my GP i think you should also talk to your gp. All the best

Yes same here. Clopidogrel with other medications first thing in the morning with slightly warm water. Statin at night. That seems to be norm, and perhaps consensus among the professionals, on the timing.
