Because you have a heart stent, stopping this medication carries a risk of stent blockage. It is incredibly important that you do not stop your medication without consulting your cardiologist first. Often, dental extractions can be safely performed while continuing your medication, or with a very brief, carefully timed pause. Please contact your cardiologist and dentist so they can coordinate a safe plan tailored specifically to your heart health.
