CompositionAspeeday Er 75mg Tablet 10 is used for daily protection of the heart and circulation in adults at risk of blood clots. It is a single-ingredient medicine containing a low dose of aspirin, and belongs to the class of antiplatelet medicines.
This medicine works by irreversibly blocking the cyclooxygenase enzyme, which reduces the formation of a substance called thromboxane A2 that promotes platelet clumping and narrowing of blood vessels. At this low strength, it is intended for daily heart and circulation protection, not for pain relief. Take it as prescribed, with food or a large glass of water to reduce stomach irritation.
Quitting smoking, eating a heart-healthy diet, staying active and keeping blood pressure and cholesterol controlled support this medicine's protective effect.
Tell your doctor about any asthma, stomach ulcers or bleeding problems, and about other medicines you take, especially other blood thinners, before starting this medicine. Do not stop it suddenly, as this can raise the risk of a heart event. Report any unusual bruising, dark stools or breathing problems such as wheezing to your doctor.
