Overview
Clopidogrel Tablet contains clopidogrel and belongs to a group of medicines called antiplatelet medicinal products. Platelets are very small structures in the blood, which clump together during blood clotting. When you buy Clopidogrel online or from your local GP it will prevent this clumping and reduce the chances of blood clots forming (a process called thrombosis).
