Patients should be told that it may take them longer than usual to stop bleeding, that they may bruise and/or bleed more easily when they take Plavix or Plavix combined with aspirin, and that they should report any unusual bleeding to their physician. Patients should inform physicians and dentists that they are taking Plavix and/or any other product known to affect bleeding before any surgery is scheduled and before any new drug is taken.
