• BRILINTA 90MG TABLET helps your blood flow more smoothly. It works on tiny blood cells called platelets. Normally, platelets help stop bleeding by sticking together and forming clots. But sometimes, these platelets can stick together too much inside your blood vessels, especially if you have a condition like Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). ACS includes serious issues like heart attack or unstable chest pain. These unwanted clots can block blood flow to your heart or brain, potentially causing another heart attack or stroke. BRILINTA works by specifically blocking a signal (a receptor called P2Y12) on your platelets. By blocking this signal, BRILINTA prevents the platelets from clumping together and forming dangerous blood clots. This action significantly reduces the risk of experiencing future heart-related problems such as heart attacks or strokes, which is crucial for people recovering from or managing ACS. It's a vital part of treatment to keep your heart healthy and prevent serious events.

• Always take BRILINTA 90MG TABLET exactly as your doctor has instructed. It's very important to follow their advice closely for the best results and to manage your condition effectively. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet; swallow it whole, preferably with a glass of water. You can take BRILINTA with or without food. To help you remember and ensure consistent levels of the medication in your body, try to take it at the same time each day. Your doctor is the best person to determine the correct dosage and how long you need to take this medicine. This decision is carefully based on several factors specific to you, including your age, body weight, and the particular medical condition being treated. It is absolutely vital that you do not stop taking BRILINTA 90MG TABLET on your own, even if you start feeling better or your symptoms improve. Suddenly stopping this medication can significantly increase your risk of serious cardiovascular events. Only discontinue use if and when your doctor explicitly advises you to stop, after they have assessed your current health status. If you happen to miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Never take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
