Can Omac be used in cardiac patients?
Patients with cardiac disease can take Omac as prescribed by the doctor. However, Omac can interact with certain drugs (e.g clopidogrel, digoxin) which might be used by a patient with an underlying cardiac disease. Patients taking Omac and digoxin may need to be monitored for digoxin toxicity. Omac decreases the activation of clopidogrel, thus reducing its effects. Patients taking these medicines together need to be monitored closely by a doctor.
