The vertebral column is a collection of individual bones  called vertebrae that encase and protect thâ¦e spinal cord. The  vertebral column is divided into three parts: seven cervical (neck)  vertebrae at the top, twelve thoracic vertebrae in the midback, and  five lumbar vertebrae in the lower back.
Clopidogrel is used to prevent heart attacks and strokes in persons with heart disease (recent heart attack), recent stroke, or blood circulation disease (peripheral vascular disease).
The metabolism of clopidogrel to its active metabolite can be impaired by use with concomitant medications, such as omeprazole, that inhibit CYP2C19 activity. Concomitant use of clopidogrel with 80 mg omeprazole reduces the pharmacological activity of clopidogrel, even when administered 12 hours apart.
