Hello there. I can understand your concern. Clopidogrel and atorvastatin both do the same action that it control the lipid profile. So if she is taking aspirin and atorvastatin, i don't think there is a problem. It's perfect. No need to take both atorvastatin and clopidogrel. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
