Description
Product Overview:
Ticabid 90mg Tablet is an antiplatelet medication, commonly referred to as a blood thinner. It helps to prevent the formation of harmful blood clots in the blood vessels, which can reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events. This medication is primarily used in patients with heart disease, particularly those who have had a recent heart attack or suffer from unstable angina (severe chest pain) and have undergone procedures like stent placement.
Key Ingredient:
- Ticagrelor (90mg): Ticagrelor works by inhibiting the activity of platelets in the blood, preventing them from clumping together and forming blood clots. This action helps reduce the risk of clot-related complications such as heart attack, stroke, and clot formation in stents.
How Ticabid 90mg Tablet Works:
Ticabid 90mg Tablet is an antiplatelet medication that prevents platelets in the blood from sticking together. By inhibiting platelet aggregation, Ticabid reduces the formation of harmful blood clots, which can block blood flow and lead to dangerous conditions like heart attacks and strokes.
Uses of Ticabid 90mg Tablet:
- Prevention of heart attack and stroke: Ticabid helps reduce the risk of a heart attack or stroke by preventing harmful blood clots in the arteries.
- Post-heart attack care: It is commonly prescribed for patients who have had a recent heart attack or unstable angina, especially after stent placement, to prevent further clot formation and reduce the risk of another heart attack or stroke.
How to Use Ticabid 90mg Tablet:
- Dosage: Take Ticabid 90mg Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. Do not alter the dosage or stop taking it without consulting your doctor.
- Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet.
- With or without food: Ticabid can be taken with or without food. However, try to take it at the same time every day to help remember.
Common Side Effects of Ticabid 90mg Tablet:
Most side effects are mild and may resolve on their own. However, if they persist or cause concern, consult your doctor:
- Bleeding: Since Ticabid is a blood thinner, it may increase the time it takes for bleeding to stop in case of cuts or injuries. This is usually mild, but any unusual bleeding should be reported to a doctor.
- Breathlessness (Dyspnea): Some patients may experience mild breathlessness, which usually resolves on its own with continued use.
If you experience severe or prolonged bleeding, or if the breathlessness becomes more severe or does not go away, consult your doctor immediately.
