A member asked:
As per p.i. sheet plavix (clopidogrel) can cause shortness of breath in 4.5% of patients. what would cause this problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't take it litera: The pi usually has lots of redundant information which does not always imply that the side effects are drug related. There is no reason for Plavix (clopidogrel) to cause shortness of breath. So you can discount this one.
