Is it allowed to take Clopidogrel during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Though no adverse effects have been described yet, it should be given cautiously since a potent inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation is likely.

My cardiologist prescribed this after placing 2 stents 8 years ago. I have had another stent placed about 2 weeks ago. When the doctor was in looking at my heart, she said the 2 earlier stents looked very good and clear. I remember taking the medication for at least 6 months.
