Clavix Gold 20 Capsule

Product Overview
Clavix Gold 20 Capsule is a combination medication used to help prevent heart attacks. It works by reducing the risk of blood clot formation and lowering high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, thereby supporting overall heart health.

This medicine can be taken with or without food but should be consumed at the same time every day, as directed by your doctor. The dosage and duration depend on your health condition. It’s important to continue the full course, even if you feel better. For best results, maintain a healthy lifestyle by following a low-fat diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking.

The most common side effect of Clavix Gold 20 Capsule is bleeding. Other possible side effects include stomach pain, indigestion, nausea, headaches, bruising, and nosebleeds. If these effects worsen or persist, seek advice from your doctor. In rare cases, symptoms like muscle pain or weakness, yellowing of the skin, or dark urine may occur, which require immediate medical attention.

Since this medicine increases the risk of bleeding, extra caution is needed when shaving, trimming nails, or handling sharp objects. It should not be used by individuals with active bleeding disorders, severe kidney or liver problems, stomach ulcers, or clotting issues. Avoid alcohol while taking this medicine. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before starting treatment.

Uses of Clavix Gold 20 Capsule
This medication is primarily used to prevent heart attacks by reducing cholesterol levels and preventing blood clot formation.

Benefits
Clavix Gold 20 Capsule contains three active ingredients: Atorvastatin, Aspirin, and Clopidogrel.
Atorvastatin helps reduce harmful cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while increasing good cholesterol (HDL), preventing narrowing of blood vessels caused by plaque buildup. Aspirin and Clopidogrel act as blood thinners to prevent clots and stop existing clots from enlarging.
When taken regularly along with healthy lifestyle changes like balanced eating and regular physical activity, this medicine significantly lowers the risk of heart disease.

Most side effects are mild and tend to improve as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, contact your doctor if they persist.

How It Works
