[|Human|] Husband had TURP on 7/8/11 and had to be hospitalized several times afterwards because of bleeding.  He takes Plavix and baby aspirin for 7  drug eluding heart stents put in on 1/14/10.  Can you take Plavix every other day and still have it be effective in order for his prostate to heal?
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for your query. I am Chat Doctor, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can. Your doctor should determine the anticoagulant and antithrombotic therapy after surgeries and in most cases Plavix should be discontinued for 2-3 days after surgery. It will not affect healing process. I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time. Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
