The incidence of adverse events was determined according to the WHO classification: very often ≥ 10%; often ≥ 1% and <10%; infrequently ≥0,1 % and <1%; rarely ≥ 0.01% and <0.1%; very rarely <0.01%; the frequency is unknown - it is not possible to determine the incidence of undesirable effects (NE) from the available data.
Legend:
1NE, which were observed when using a combination of clopidogrel and ASA;
2NE, which were observed with the use of clopidogrel;
3HE, which were observed with the use of ASA.
Hemorrhagic adverse events (purpura / bruising, nasal bleeding, hematuria, hemorrhages in skin tissues, bone and muscle, hematomas, hemorrhages in the joint cavity [hemarthrosis], conjunctiva, internal environments and the retina of the eye, bleeding from the respiratory tract, hemoptysis bleeding from the operating wound, intracranial hemorrhage (hemorrhagic strokes), bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract,retroperitoneal hemorrhage, etc.)
Bleeding and hemorrhages were the most frequently observed adverse events in clinical trials and in the post-marketing use of the drug, mainly during the first month of treatment.
- Often: large bleeding1 [Life-threatening bleeding, requiring transfusion of 4 or more units of blood; other large bleeding, requiring transfusion of 2-3 units of blood; not life-threatening large bleeding]; minor bleeding1, bleeding at the site of vascular puncture1,2; bruising2; hematoma2.
The frequency of major bleeding when applying the combination clopidogrel + ASA depended on the dose of ASA (<100 mg - 2.6%, 100 - 200 mg - 3.5%,> 200 mg - 4.9%), as well as their frequency with one ASA (<100 mg - 2.0%, 100 - 200 mg - 2.3%,> 200 mg - 4.0%).
In patients who discontinued treatment more than 5 days before aortocoronary shunting, there was no increase in cases of large bleeding within 7 days after this intervention (4.4% - with clopidogrel + ASA versus 5.3% - with one ASA). In patients who remained on antiplatelet therapy for the last five days before aortocoronary bypass surgery,the incidence of these bleeding after intervention was 9.6% (clopidogrel + ASA) and 6.3% (one ASA).
- Infrequently: bleeding with lethal outcome1; life-threatening hemorrhage [bleeding with a decrease in hemoglobin of more than 5 g / dL1; bleeding requiring surgery1; intracranial hemorrhage (hemorrhagic stroke)1; bleeding, requiring the introduction of inotropic drugs]1; severe bleeding (most often purpura, nasal bleeding, less common hematuria and intraocular hemorrhages, mainly conjunctival2).
- Rarely: intraocular hemorrhages with significant visual impairment1, retroperitoneal hemorrhage1.
- Frequency is unknown (post-marketing experience): serious cases of bleeding2, mainly, hemorrhage in the skin tissue2, in the bones, muscles and joint cavity (hemarthrosis)2, in the eye tissues (conjunctival, in the internal environment and the retina of the eye)2, bleeding from the respiratory tract2, hemoptysis2, nosebleeds2, hematuria2, bleeding from an operating wound2, intracranial hemorrhage3, including fatal cases3, especially in elderly patients; other cases of bleeding with a fatal outcome (in particular, bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract and retroperitoneal hemorrhage)2.
Violations of the blood and lymphatic system
- Infrequently: decrease in the number of platelets in peripheral blood1, severe thrombocytopenia with a platelet count in the peripheral blood ≤ 80x109/ l, but > 30x109/ l1; leukopenia1; decrease in the number of neutrophils in peripheral blood1, eosinophilia1, prolongation of bleeding time1.
- Rarely: neutropenia1, including severe neutropenia (< 0,45x109/ l)1. Although the risk of myelotoxic effects when using clopidogrel is low enough, its potential should be considered when the patient receiving clopidogrel, develops fever and other infectious manifestations.
- Rarely: aplastic anemia1, severe thrombocytopenia with the number of platelets in the peripheral blood ≤ 30x109 / l1.
- Frequency is unknown (post-marketing experience): thrombocytopenia3, hemolytic anemia in patients with insufficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase3, agranulocytosis2,3; aplastic anemia2,3/ pancytopenia2,3, bitsitopenia3, disorders of bone marrow hematopoiesis3, neutropenia3, leukopenia3, granulocytopenia3, anemia1, acquired hemophilia A2, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP)2.
