1. What Aspirin Tablets 75mg are and what they are used for

•    Each tablet contains the active ingredient Aspirin 75 mg.

•    Aspirin (acetysalicylic acid) belongs to a group of medicines called antiplatelet agents that help prevent your blood cells sticking together and forming a blood clot.

• Aspirin Tablets 75mg are principally used to prevent blood clots forming following a heart attack or stroke or to help prevent heart attacks and strokes in patients who have previously suffered from these conditions. They may have been prescribed for you if you have recently had by-pass surgery.

•    are allergic to acetylsalicylic acid or any of the ingredients in Aspirin tablets (see section 6 “Further information”)

•    are allergic to other salicylates or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs

(NSAIDs). NSAIDs are often used for arthritis or rheumatism and pain have had an asthma attack or swelling of some parts of the body e.g. face, lips, throat or tongue (angioedema) after taking salicylates or NSAIDs currently have or have ever had an ulcer in your stomach or small intestine or any other type

of bleeding like a stroke

•    have ever had the problem of your blood not clotting properly

•    are suffering from gout

Inform your doctor if you are planning to have an operation (even a minor one, such as tooth

extraction) since acetylsalicylic acid is blood-thinning there may be an increased risk of bleeding. Acetylsalicylic acid may cause Reye's syndrome when given to children. Reye's syndrome is a very rare disease which affects the brain and liver and can be life threatening. For this reason, Aspirin tablets should not be given to children aged under 16 years,

unless on the advice of a doctor.
