Wockhardt Aspirin Gastro-Resistant 75mg x 56 Tablets
Wockhardt Aspirin 75mg is a low-dose antiplatelet medication formulated to help prevent the formation of blood clots. It is primarily used for the long-term secondary prevention of cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes in individuals at high risk.
Benefits of Gastro-Resistant Coating
These tablets are "gastro-resistant" (also known as enteric-coated). This means they are designed to pass through the stomach intact and only dissolve once they reach the small intestine. This special formulation is much gentler on your stomach compared to standard aspirin, significantly reducing the risk of stomach irritation and ulcers—making it suitable for long-term daily use as prescribed by your doctor.
Who is it for?
Wockhardt Aspirin 75mg is typically for adults over 16 years of age who have been advised by a medical professional to take a low-dose antiplatelet. It is commonly prescribed for people who have already had a heart attack or stroke, or those who have undergone heart surgery.
How to use
- Take exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
- Usually, one tablet is taken daily.
- Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush or chew it, as this will destroy the gastro-resistant coating.
Note: Low-dose aspirin is a serious medication. Always consult your doctor or a GoMed pharmacist before starting this treatment to ensure it is right for you.
