I had undergone angioplasty a year ago. Clopidogrel 75 mg is prescribed to time blood. I was already allergic to wet weather and clopidogrel had increased the allergy. I was itching terribly and my back was covered with blood stains from scratching. It is now kept under control by an expensive lotion (Rs. 900+ for 200 ml) containing phytosterols. Another problem is insomnia. Etizola and solopos (0.25 and 0.5 mg) were ineffective. I keep awake throughout the night sleeping early morning for 3+ hours. Sometimes additional avil (6 mg or one fourth of a tablet) helps. Immediately after breakfast (whole wheat bread) I sleep for 3 or 4+ hours making up the lost sleep. It looks as if day and night had been interchanged. Any suggestion? I shall take it up with my cardiologist before using the drugs. You would be immunized against consequences.
