Ischemic means that an organ (e.g., the heart) is not getting enough blood and oxygen. Ischemic heart disease, also called coronary heart disease (CHD) or coronary artery disease is the term given to heart problems caused by narrowed heart (coronary) arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle. A 60 year old male patient was known case of Ischemic Heart disease (IHD). He came to tertiary care hospital with complaints of 4-5 episodes of hematemesis after administering Tablet (Tab). DEPLETT-A (75/150 milligram (mg)) (0-1-0) (clopidogrel + aspirin). For management of Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) doctor kept suspected drug on hold till the symptoms recovered.
