— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
Clopidogrel 是抗血小板藥物,會增加出血風險。黑色瀝青樣大便(Melena)暗示上消化道出血,是極為危險的徵象,必須立即報告以處理出血性併發症。瘀青、輕微頭痛是可能副反應,但黑便代表活動性出血,需即刻處理。
Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet drug that increases the risk of bleeding. Black, tarry stools (melena) suggest upper gastrointestinal bleeding, a highly dangerous sign that must be reported immediately so that the hemorrhagic complication can be managed. Bruising and mild headache are possible side effects, but melena indicates active bleeding that requires prompt action.
