Stopping brilinta90mg after 6 months
Had 3 stents in the month of December 2017. Have been taking brilinta 90 mg 2 times a day and ecospirin 75 mg once daily since. I may stop brilinta 90 mg any time soon. Should I then increase ecospiprin dose? Any natural or homeopathic or ayurvedic substitute of brilinta 90 mg?

Don’t decide on stopping antiplatelet s urself. Or else there will be stent thrombosis. Do what ur cardiologist suggests .

You have 3 stents implanted so please don't ever try to modify or stop medications without cardiologist consultation. There is no substitute of brillinta in homeopathy or ayurveda. Post stenting brillinta is continued for a year if there is no issues. And after that we shift pt. On clopidogrel and ecosprin

plz meet a cardiologist
