Brief Answer:
Yes you can take it. But be cautious

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome.
This is Dr Sameer, cardiologist.
Yes you can take Vedafil even after Angioplasty when you are on Brillinta.
But be very cautious if you are taking nitrate. Taking Sildenafil with nitrate can cause serious fall in BP.
So if you are taking any nitrate in your treatment, avoid using Vedafil.
Thanks & take care
