Thank you for the question, Steven. While we cannot give medical advice about treatment over the internet, I can give you some information about different drugs. Plavix is a ADP-induced platelet aggregation inhibitor. Here is a list of other medications that are also ADP-induced platelet aggregation inhibitors. Additionally, here is a link to some in depth information about Plavix. While there are many medications that are related, certain medications are better for certain conditions, types of people, etc. Talk to your doctor about alternatives to Plavix if there is a reason that you do not want to take Plavix.
