ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

worse than the illness, in my case it meant heart fibrillations, had to stop immediately without properly being told why, was prescribed by the cardiologist, apparently as a routine. considered customisation. After 1 day more difficulty than ever with pressure on my chest that wasn't going away, fainting and imminent heart attack.

ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

After having 3 stents inserted, was given Brilique and in the beginning I thought that it was going really well, but at the end of my exercise I was more exhausted than before. I didn't think that it would have been anything to do with the Brilique but after reading what other users have said, I think that my problems have stemmed from using Brilique.

ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

Had a heart attack, was given this. Haematomas on my legs and excessive bleeding even from the smallest of cuts. Dangerous medicine in the event of a serious incident. Stopped on 12 May because of taking antibiotics and switched to 150 mg aspirin and a completely vegetarian diet.

ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

I had a heart attack in January 2015 (male 58 yr), had percutaneous angioplasty and 1 stent. I had to take a whole load of medicine one of which was Brilique. After a few months of serious anaemia (they even gave me a drip and iron tablets afterwards). After many unpleasant examinations the cause was found to be a weak blood vessel in the small intestine. GP and cardiologist decided I should qu...

ticagrelor (90mg) for angina pectoris

Had a heart attack on 1 August. Afterwards was straight on the meds, including Brilique combined with ascal . Initially I was just short of breath but then bruises started developing and now I've got spontaneous bleeding in my shoulder and lower leg. And that's just what's visible. The GP tried to get me to say that I had had a fall or something. But genuinely when I got out of bed and went to ...

ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

Mind heart attack in November 2015, caused by a blockage in a vein. Cardiologist prescribed me this medicine in January but I didn't feel like I had any particular problems. Was rehabilitating and it was going well. To be honest haven't really had satisfactory explanation as to why I need to take these/any side effects.

ticagrelor (90mg) for heart attack

Really serious shortness of breath which seems to get worse the longer I take this medicine. Really limiting and sometimes scary. Bruises which suddenly appear, small in diameter but really dark in colour.

ticagrelor (90mg) for stroke

Just started taking this drug, dizzy, sweating, unsure. Next week another visit to the doctor about stopping this product. Used Clopidogrel, which made me dizzy, but it's worse with Brilque. Bruising after knocks. Expensive, 46.07 euros for 28 tablets, 2 a day. Insurance won't pay for this product. But they do pay for Clopidogrel. According to the pharmacist an aspirin is an excellent alternati...
