: Illinois Injury Lawyer BlogWarning issued against concomitant use of Plavix and omeprazole
Levin & Perconti wanted to highlight a recent piece of drug liability news that may affect you or someone you know. This week, the FDA warned that popular drugs like Prilosec and Nexium can weaken the effect of Plavix. The drug interactions are concerning to the many Americans who take the drugs. The drugs may no longer be as effective to people if they also consume omeprazole. Millions of Americans take Plavix to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. However, the drug can cause side effects like an upset stomach, so many people take drugs like Prilosec and Nexium. According to a notice on the Food and Drug Administration?s website, the anti-clotting benefits of Plavix are cut almost in half when taken with over-the-counter or prescription Prilosec.
