What is the most important information I need to know about Prasukind?
Prasukind may cause serious or life-threatening bleeding. Moreover, you may bruise easily and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop even if you have a minor injury such as a small cut while shaving. Get emergency medical help if you notice excessive or prolonged bleeding. You should inform your doctor if you notice black tarry stools or if there is blood in the urine. Be vigilant on any signs of stroke such as sudden numbness or weakness (one side or both sides of the body), difficulty walking, mental confusion, slurred speech, dizziness and any unexplained headache. Contact your doctor immediately if you develop any such signs of stroke as stroke is an uncommon side effect of Prasukind and needs urgent medical attention as it can otherwise be fatal.

Can you drink alcohol while taking Rasug?
It is not advised to take alcohol while taking Rasug, as alcohol may increase your chance of stomach bleeding. As a result, you may vomit blood (which may be bright red blood or black/dark brown like coffee grounds) or you may have bloody or black tarry stools. Discuss with your doctor if you are not sure.
Do I need to stop Rasug before surgery?
Your doctor will decide whether you need to stop taking Rasug before any surgery or treatment or not. Usually, if a surgery or treatment is planned beforehand, the doctor may stop Rasug a few days (usually 7 days) before the surgery or treatment owing to the increased risk of bleeding during the procedure. You should not stop taking Rasug on your own without discussing it with your doctor.
What should I avoid while taking Rasug?
Avoid activities that may increase your chances of bleeding. Be extra careful while shaving or brushing your teeth to prevent bleeding. You should avoid taking painkillers, but if you need to take one like ibuprofen for joint pain, headache, backache etc, then consult your doctor first. This is because taking pain killers with Rasug may increase your chances of developing a stomach ulcer and bleeding. Refrain from taking excessive alcohol with Rasug as it can irritate your stomach and lead to a stomach ulcer as well.
How long do I need to take Rasug after stent insertion?
The exact duration of taking Rasug will be decided by your doctor after considering various factors like the illness you are being treated for, type of stent inserted, any episodes of bleeding experienced by you during treatment etc. Usually, it is prescribed for a minimum duration of 1 year. However, follow your doctors advice precisely to get maximum benefit of Rasug. Discuss with your doctor before stopping the medication, as sudden discontinuation may increase the chances of clot formation in the stent, heart attack, and can even lead to death.
