Aspirin Protect 100 Mg 30 Tablets

Aspirin Protect 100 Mg 30 Tablets

Description:

Aspirin Protect 100 mg is a low-dose acetylsalicylic acid medication in gastro-resistant tablet form, specifically designed for long-term cardiovascular protection. It belongs to the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) and is primarily used as an antiplatelet agent to reduce blood clot formation. The gastro-resistant coating helps the tablet pass through the stomach and dissolve in the intestine, which may reduce direct gastric irritation compared to plain aspirin. This product is intended for adult use under medical supervision for the prevention and management of cardiovascular events.

Indications:

• Inhibition of platelet aggregation (antiplatelet therapy) to reduce the risk of blood clot formation.
• Secondary prevention of cardiovascular events such as heart attack (myocardial infarction) and ischemic stroke, as prescribed by a physician.
• To improve survival in emergency situations of a heart attack, as part of standard medical care when advised by a doctor.
• Prevention of recurrent angina or other ischemic heart disease complications when low-dose aspirin is indicated by a cardiologist.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) – 100 mg per gastro-resistant tablet.
• Other excipients: The full list of inactive ingredients (tablet core and gastro-resistant coating) is not available in the provided information. Please refer to the official package leaflet for complete excipient details.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.
• Typical adult dose for antiplatelet therapy: 100 mg once daily (1 tablet), or as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Tablets should be swallowed whole with water; do not crush, chew, or break, to preserve the gastro-resistant coating.
• Preferably take at the same time each day to maintain consistent antiplatelet effect.
• Can be taken with or without food; taking with food or after meals may help reduce gastrointestinal discomfort.
• Do not use in children and adolescents under 16 years unless specifically prescribed by a doctor due to the risk of reye’s syndrome.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember on the same day. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not double the dose.
• Duration of use is usually long term (chronic therapy) for cardiovascular prevention, as advised by your cardiologist or physician.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps inhibit platelet aggregation, reducing the tendency of blood to form clots in arteries.
• Supports secondary prevention of heart attack and ischemic stroke in high-risk patients when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
• Improves survival and outcomes in acute myocardial infarction when used in emergency settings under medical supervision.
• Contributes to long-term cardiovascular protection in patients with established coronary artery disease, as recommended by healthcare professionals.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Do not use if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to acetylsalicylic acid, other salicylates, or any of the excipients.
• Contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer, recent gastrointestinal bleeding, or history of recurrent ulcers, unless strictly supervised by a physician.
• Do not use in patients with severe liver failure, severe kidney failure, or severe heart failure unless specifically advised by a specialist.
• Not recommended in patients with bleeding disorders (e.g., hemophilia, thrombocytopenia) or those with a history of hemorrhagic stroke.
• Use with caution if you are taking anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin), other antiplatelet agents (e.g., clopidogrel), nsaids, or high-dose corticosteroids due to increased bleeding risk.
• Children under 16 years of age should not take aspirin unless on the advice of a doctor, as aspirin use in children has been associated with reye’s syndrome, a rare but serious condition affecting the brain and liver that can be fatal.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or planning pregnancy. Low-dose aspirin may be used in specific conditions under strict medical supervision, but is generally not recommended in the last trimester of pregnancy.
• Consult your doctor before use if breastfeeding, as small amounts of aspirin may pass into breast milk.
• Use with caution in patients with asthma, nasal polyps, or a history of aspirin-induced bronchospasm, as aspirin may trigger severe allergic or respiratory reactions.
• Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking, including over-the-counter products and herbal remedies.
• Stop use and seek immediate medical advice if you notice signs of bleeding (such as black or tarry stools, blood in vomit, unusual bruising, or prolonged bleeding).
• Consult your doctor before use if you have kidney disease, liver disease, uncontrolled hypertension, gout, or are on a low-sodium or special diet.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have medical conditions such as liver disease, kidney disease, bleeding disorders, asthma, diabetes, or gastric ulcers.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical supervision.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects: gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, indigestion, abdominal pain, and mild heartburn.
• Less common side effects: vomiting, diarrhea, or mild gastrointestinal bleeding (e.g., dark stools), especially with prolonged use or in sensitive individuals.
• Serious side effects: severe gastrointestinal bleeding, stomach or duodenal ulcers, allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing), bronchospasm in susceptible patients, or severe bleeding events (e.g., intracranial hemorrhage) in high-risk individuals.
• Very rare but serious: reye’s syndrome in children and adolescents, characterized by persistent vomiting, confusion, seizures, and loss of consciousness.
• Stop taking the product and seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs of severe allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat; difficulty breathing), severe abdominal pain, vomiting blood, black or tarry stools, sudden severe headache, weakness, or vision/speech disturbances.
