WARNING: BLEEDING RISK Effient can cause significant, sometimes fatal, bleeding [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1 , 5.2) and Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Do not use Effient in patients with active pathological bleeding or a history of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke [see Contraindications (4.1 , 4.2) ] . In patients ≥75 years of age, Effient is generally not recommended, because of the increased risk of fatal and intracranial bleeding and uncertain benefit, except in high-risk situations (patients with diabetes or a history of prior myocardial infarction [MI]) where its effect appears to be greater and its use may be considered [see Use in Specific Populations (8.5) ] . Do not start Effient in patients likely to undergo urgent coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). When possible, discontinue Effient at least 7 days prior to any surgery [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . Additional risk factors for bleeding include: body weight <60 kg, propensity to bleed, concomitant use of medications that increase the risk of bleeding (e.g . , warfarin, heparin, fibrinolytic therapy, chronic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs]) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . Suspect bleeding in any patient who is hypotensive and has recently undergone coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), CABG, or other surgical procedures in the setting of Effient [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . If possible, manage bleeding without discontinuing Effient. Discontinuing Effient, particularly in the first few weeks after acute coronary syndrome, increases the risk of subsequent cardiovascular (CV) events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . WARNING: BLEEDING RISK See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. Effient can cause significant, sometimes fatal, bleeding ( 5.1 , 5.2 , 6.1 ). Do not use Effient in patients with active pathological bleeding or a history of transient ischemic attack or stroke ( 4.1 , 4.2 ). In p
