Abstract
|
|
|
|
Clopidogrel bisulfate, a widely used inhibitor of platelet aggregation, is considered at least as safe as aspirin. We describe a 61 year old male patient who developed a systemic inflammatory response syndrome consisting of high fever, rash, chills, impaired liver function, and mild leukopenia after receiving clopidogrel after coronary angiography and stent implantation. The reaction resolved promptly after withdrawal of the drug, thus making the diagnosis of a clopidogrel induced reaction highly probable.
