nt if they have a stroke.

Whenever possible, patients should stop taking Effient at least 7 days before any surgery, as instructed by their doctor who prescribed Effient.

Patients may also have a higher risk of bleeding if they take Effient and they:  a) are age 75 or older, b) weigh less than 132 pounds, c) are taking anticoagulants (eg, warfarin) or NSAIDs (eg, ibuprofen or naproxen) for a long time, d) undergo surgery, or e) have severe liver problems.

Patients should not stop taking Effient without talking to the doctor who prescribes it for them. People who are treated with angioplasty and have a stent, and stop taking Effient too soon, have a higher risk of a blood clot in the stent, having a heart attack, or dying.

What should patients tell their doctor before taking Effient?

Tell their doctor about all of their medical conditions, allergies and medicines they are taking.

What are the possible side effects of Effient?

Bleeding is the most common side effect of Effient.  

TTP, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition, has been reported with Effient, sometimes after a short time (less than 2 weeks). Patients should get medical attention right away if they develop the following unexpected symptoms of TTP: fever, weakness, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or if skin becomes very pale or dotted with purple spots.

Other side effects may occur.
