My husband was prescribed Clopidogrel following his stroke. The hospital also prescribed Lansoprazole. When I asked what they were for I was told it would help with the Clopidogrel, settle his tummy. So far, no side effects, he has been taking them for five months now. I hope this helps.

Thank you…I was on Clopidogrel for years, but when I was in hospital they changed it to Apixaban…I’m also supposed to take Lansoprazole, but it made me feel sick…my wife seems to have got rid of her sickness now, so it may have been the Clopidogrel getting into her system…
