What is the antidote for plavix?
There isn’t one. Once the platelets have been affected by Plavix, the anti clotting abilty of those platelets is permanently altered. However, new platelets are replaced every 7-10 days, so generally, clotting returns in about 5 days. It is important NEVER to stop taking Plavix suddenly. The dose should be gradually discontinued under a physician’s supervision.
