We now know that clotting is an extremely dangerous event in cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolism and peripheral vascular diseases. Currently conventional medical therapy calls for aspirin, coumadin, heparin and plavix(clopidogrel) to help reduce the "stickiness" of platelets that cause clots.
