Your medical regimen is perfectly aligned with current recommendations. I can see no opportunity for useful change. Fortunately, you will not acclimatize. Plavix/clopidogrel can be discontinued anywhere from three months to one year after the stent is placed. Your doctor will give you this time period. The whiskey does not help.
