Clorel-A Tablet combines Clopidogrel 75 mg and Aspirin 75 mg in a single formulation to provide enhanced antiplatelet therapy. This combination helps prevent the formation of blood clots in patients at high risk of cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, strokes, and complications following stent placement. By targeting platelet aggregation through two complementary mechanisms, Clorel-A offers effective protection against thrombotic events.

Indications
Clorel-A Tablet 75 mg + 75 mg is indicated for:
-
Prevention of atherosclerotic events such as heart attacks and strokes in high-risk patients
-
Management of acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction)
-
Post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or stent placement to prevent clot formation
-
Patients requiring dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for cardiovascular protection
Mechanism of Action
-
Clopidogrel: Inhibits the P2Y12 ADP receptor on platelets, preventing them from aggregating and forming clots.
-
Aspirin: Inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), reducing thromboxane A2 production, which also prevents platelet aggregation.
The combination provides a synergistic effect, significantly reducing the risk of thrombotic cardiovascular events.

The usual recommended dose is one tablet once daily, preferably at the same time each day.
-
Can be taken with or without food.
-
Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not crush or chew.
-
Duration of therapy should follow the physician’s instructions, often based on cardiovascular risk and procedure history.
