Aspirin Protect 100 mg gastro-resistant tablets, 98 pcs

Prevent a heart attack or stroke with Aspirin protect

Aspirin protect helps you prevent another heart attack or stroke if you have already suffered one.The active ingredient acetylsalicylic acid in increased doses inhibits the clumping of blood platelets and thus prevents the formation of blood clots.This promotes arterial blood flow and reduces the risk of further cardiovascular diseases.

Areas of application of Aspirin protect

Aspirin protect is used in various situations, including circulatory disorders, heart pain due to unstable angina, acute heart attack, after surgery on arterial blood vessels, as well as to prevent temporary insufficient blood flow to the brain and precursor stages of a cerebral infarction.It is also used in the treatment of Kawasaki syndrome to reduce inflammation and prevent blood clots in coronary artery aneurysms.

Good tolerance when taken daily

Aspirin protect consists of enteric-coated tablets that should be taken whole with plenty of liquid, preferably before meals.These tablets are gentle on the stomach, very well tolerated and therefore suitable for long-term use.Long-term, daily intake is recommended.

Mode of action

Acetylsalicylic acid, the active ingredient in Aspirin protect, inhibits cyclooxygenase and irreversibly prevents platelet aggregation.This improves the flow properties of the blood and prevents the formation of vascular blockages.The special coating of the tablets ensures that the active ingredient is only released in the small intestine, which significantly improves stomach tolerance.

Patient information

In low doses, acetylsalicylic acid reduces uric acid excretion.In patients at risk, this can potentially trigger a gout attack.If you cut or injure yourself, it may take a little longer than usual for any bleeding to stop.This is related to the effect of the drug.Minor cuts and injuries (e.g. B. when shaving) are usually of no importance.If you have any unusual bleeding (from an unusual location or of unusual duration), contact your doctor.Medicines containing acetylsalicylic acid should not be used for a longer period of time or in higher doses without consulting your doctor.

Children and adolescents: The medicine should only be used in children and adolescents with febrile illnesses on medical instructions and only if other measures do not work.If these illnesses cause prolonged vomiting, it may be a sign of Reye's syndrome, a very rare but life-threatening disease that requires immediate medical attention.

Driving and using machines: No special precautions are required.Store drug out of reach of children.

Pregnancy

Pregnancy: If you become pregnant while taking this medicine, please notify your doctor immediately.In the first and second trimesters of pregnancy you may only take the medicine if your doctor tells you to.In the last three months of pregnancy, you cannot take acetylsalicylic acid, the active ingredient of the drug, in a dosage of more than 150 mg per day due to an increased risk of complications for the mother and child before and during childbirth.You may only take acetylsalicylic acid up to 150 mg per day in the last trimester of pregnancy if your doctor orders it.

Breastfeeding: The active ingredient acetylsalicylic acid and its breakdown products pass into breast milk in small quantities.Since adverse consequences for the infant have not yet been reported, interruption of breastfeeding will generally not be necessary when using a daily dose of up to 150 mg.If higher doses are taken (over 150 mg daily dose), breastfeeding should be discontinued.
