Should Clopidogrel Be Disposed After Three Years From The Manufacturing Date?
I had a brain bleed stroke in 2006 and a heart attack in 2012 (given stents). I found two prescription bottles of Clopidogrel (from 2013) which I must have stopped taking because the pills caused bruising and bleeding. I’m taking Lisinopril and Simvastatin currently. Should I throws away the clopidogrel?
