Aspocid 75 Mg 20 Tablets

Aspocid 75 Mg 20 Tablets

Description:

Aspocid 75 mg 20 tablets is a low-dose aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) medication classified as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with antiplatelet (blood-thinning) properties. It is primarily used for cardiovascular protection to help prevent blood clots, reduce the risk of heart attack (myocardial infarction), and prevent certain types of stroke (cerebrovascular disease). Aspocid 75 mg is commonly prescribed as long-term therapy in patients at risk of cardiovascular events and is intended for use under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Prophylaxis (prevention) of cerebrovascular disease, including ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), in patients at risk.
• Prevention of myocardial infarction (heart attack) in patients with a history of coronary artery disease or high cardiovascular risk.
• Improving survival and reducing complications in emergency situations of a suspected or confirmed heart attack, as directed by a physician.
• Secondary prevention of thromboembolic events (blood clots) in patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, as prescribed by a doctor.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) – 75 mg per tablet.
• Excipients: Other inactive ingredients (such as fillers, binders, and coating agents) are present but specific excipient names and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by your physician. Do not self-medicate with Aspocid 75 mg for cardiovascular prevention without medical advice.
• Typical adult dose for cardiovascular prophylaxis: 75 mg (1 tablet) once daily, or as directed by your doctor.
• Tablets should be swallowed whole with a sufficient amount of water. Do not crush or chew unless your doctor specifically instructs otherwise.
• Can be taken with or after food to help reduce gastric irritation.
• In emergency heart attack situations, a doctor may instruct the patient to chew or crush a tablet for faster absorption; follow emergency medical guidance only.
• Take the dose at the same time each day to maintain consistent antiplatelet effect.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose or change the dosing schedule without consulting your healthcare provider.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps prevent formation of blood clots by inhibiting platelet aggregation, thereby reducing the risk of heart attack and certain types of stroke.
• Supports long-term cardiovascular protection in patients with a history of myocardial infarction, stroke, or established atherosclerotic disease.
• Improves survival and reduces complications when used appropriately in emergency heart attack situations under medical supervision.
• Provides a low-dose, maintenance antiplatelet therapy option that is widely used in clinical practice for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects: Mild gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, indigestion, heartburn, or abdominal pain.
• Less common side effects: Increased tendency to bruise, nosebleeds, or minor bleeding (e.g., from gums or cuts) due to its blood-thinning effect.
