Description

Aspirin helps to relieve pain and inflammation. It also helps to bring down a fever.

Aspirin is also a blood-thinning medicine. It prevents special cells in the blood -- the platelets -- from sticking to each other. This reduces the risk of harmful blood clots forming. Blood clots that form in a blood vessel inside the heart or brain can cause a heart attack or a stroke.

Aspirin may be used on its own or together with other medicines to prevent heart attacks and strokes in people who are at risk.

Aspirin is also used together with other medicines to prevent blood clots in people who have had stents inserted into their heart arteries. It can also be used to prevent harmful blood clots in people who have an artificial heart valve.

Aspirin can also be used for other medical conditions, as decided by your doctor.

Directions

Take Aspirin exactly as directed by your doctor. Do not take more or less than instructed by your doctor.

If you are taking Aspirin for pain or fever relief, you may stop taking it when you feel better.

However, if you are taking Aspirin for other purposes, especially as a heart or stroke medicine, continue taking it even when you feel better. Do not stop taking Aspirin unless instructed by your doctor.

Aspirin is available in many different forms. Some forms of Aspirin should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Other forms of Aspirin should be dissolved in a glass of water before taking. Yet other forms of Aspirin can be chewed or placed on the tongue where it will dissolve by itself. Follow the instructions given on the box or packaging label. Ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain to you if you are not sure how to take your Aspirin.

Whichever form of Aspirin you are given, take it together with food or immediately after a meal, with a glass of water. Do not take it on an empty stomach.
