An Adult Patient Had an Endarterectomy

An adult patient had an endarterectomy. A month later, the physician ordered Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75 mg to be taken once a day at PM. The patient asks the nurse the reason for taking the medication. The nurse responded correctly when she said that it will:

A) Lower the slight fever that a patient had since the operation
B) Reduce the discomfort at the surgical incision
C) Help to prevent further clogging of the arteries
D) Limit the inflammation at the incision
