Product introduction

Brilinta 60mg Tablet is also used to treat people with a recent heart attack or severe heart-related chest pain (unstable angina) who have undergone stenting of the heart. It helps to prevent serious heart-related problems like having another heart attack, stroke, or formation of blood clots in stents in such people.

Your doctor will also prescribe aspirin, another antiplatelet medicine, along with this medicine. Brilinta 60mg Tablet may be taken with or without food and should be taken regularly at the same time each day. It is important to keep taking it even if you feel well. If you stop taking this medicine, it may increase your chances of having another heart attack or stroke.

The most common side effects of this medicine are dyspnea (breathlessness) and bleeding. If you cut or injure yourself, it may take longer than usual for the bleeding to stop. Such episodes of bleeding are usually mild and resolve on their own. Mild breathlessness caused by this medicine usually resolves on its own with continued treatment. Let your doctor know if bleeding persists or if the breathlessness worsens or does not go away.

Brilinta 60mg Tablet is not suitable for some people. Do not take it if you are bleeding from anywhere in the body, such as a stomach ulcer or bleeding within the brain. It is also not recommended for people with liver diseases. Before using the medicine, inform your doctor of any such problems.
