Common sense.  I must be losing my marbles.  Thankyou for reminding me of the expertise of someone much easier to contact than my doctor.

That is exactly what I considered might happenand now I can refer to it in medical terms when I next see my doctor.  Thank you

Hi joannblub and welcome to the forum.

By doing a 15 second check I found 1 Significant  interaction
between these ibuprofen and clopidorgrel when taken together.

"clopidogrel, ibuprofen. Either increases effects of the other by pharmacodynamic synergism. Significant - Monitor Closely. Clopidogrel and NSAIDs both inhibit platelet aggregation"
Source: Medscape Reference.

You can do this on your own.
Just type "multi-drug interaction checker"and search.

Hope this helps.
Cheers!
Niko

Hi joannblub,

A good person to ask would be the pharmacist where you get the
clopidorgrel. Ask him or her about whether you can take ibuprofen
and clopidogrel together or whether there would be a contraindication?
Good luck. Eve
