What are the maximum number of days for skipping plavix (clopidogrel) without taking a risk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Seven: it take seven to ten days for the plavix (clopidogrel) to be effective as a mild blood thinner and it take the same time to reverse the effect the closer you are to the seven days the less protection you have from the plavix (clopidogrel)
