Aspirin Protect 100mg 30 Tablets is a medicine that contains aspirin and has, among other properties, that of thinning the blood. This effect persists 4 to 8 days after stopping treatment. Coating the tablet releases the active substance in the intestine rather than the stomach, thereby preventing the irritating effect of aspirin on the stomach lining.
It is used to prevent recurrences of cardiovascular disease caused by a blood clot in an artery (myocardial infarction, stroke.); but also complications after bypass surgery .
The tablets should be swallowed whole without being chewed, with a glass of water, preferably before the meal.
Usual dosage :

Blood clots are semi-solid, viscous masses made up of blood cells. Their formation is a normal reaction of the organism following an injury in a blood vessel. They are mainly used to seal the leak and prevent hemorrhage.
However, when a clot clogs an artery (or thrombus) and thus prevents the flow of blood and oxygen to an organ, it can create a lesion in the tissues, that is, a heart attack. When blood clots break off (embolism) from the area they were meant to protect, they can put other organs at risk.
Fragile hearts need a diet close to the Cretan diet so as not to suffer new cardiac events.
This healthy eating method gives pride of place to fruits, vegetables, fish and olive oil.
