Acard 75mg Enteric-Coated Tablets: Effective Protection Against Cardiovascular Events

Description:

Acard 75mg enteric-coated tablets are heart-shaped, white, and biconvex. Each tablet contains 75mg of acetylsalicylic acid, an active ingredient that inhibits platelet aggregation. This medication is designed for long-term prophylactic use in individuals at risk of developing blood clots (thrombosis) and embolisms.

Benefits:

Acard is a valuable tool for preventing serious cardiovascular events by reducing the risk of:

• Myocardial infarction (heart attack): Secondary prevention after a heart attack.
• Cardiovascular disease: Prevention in patients with stable angina (chest pain).
• Unstable angina: Prevention (excluding the acute phase).
• Graft occlusion: Prevention after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
• Coronary angioplasty: Prevention (excluding the acute phase).
• Transient ischemic attacks (TIA) and ischemic stroke: Secondary prevention, excluding intracerebral hemorrhages.

Dosage & Administration:

Consult your doctor for a personalized dosage and duration of treatment. Acard 75mg tablets should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablets.

Recommended Dosages:

• Secondary prevention of myocardial infarction: 75-150mg once daily.
• Prevention of cardiovascular disease in patients with stable angina: 75-150mg once daily.
• Unstable angina (excluding the acute phase): 75-150mg once daily.
• Prevention of graft occlusion after CABG: 75-150mg once daily.
• Coronary angioplasty (excluding the acute phase): 75-150mg once daily.
• Secondary prevention of TIA and ischemic stroke (excluding intracerebral hemorrhages): 75-300mg once daily.

Important Information:

• Acard 75mg enteric-coated tablets are not recommended for acute cardiovascular events. They are intended for secondary prevention of chronic conditions.
• Consult your doctor before using Acard, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions, are taking other medications, or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• This medication is not suitable for use as an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, or antipyretic.
• Acard should not be given to children and adolescents under 16 years of age, unless the benefits outweigh the risks.

Possible Side Effects:

Like all medications, Acard can cause side effects. If you experience any of the following, stop using the medication and contact your doctor immediately:

• Allergic reactions: Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing or swallowing.
• Internal bleeding: Black stool, bleeding from the digestive tract.

Cautions & Interactions:

• Acard should be used with caution in patients with hypertension, a history of gastric or duodenal ulcers, bleeding disorders, or renal or hepatic impairment.
• Concomitant use with other medications that alter hemostasis (anticoagulants, thrombolytic agents, antiplatelet agents, anti-inflammatory drugs, SSRIs) may increase the risk of bleeding.
• Acard in low doses can reduce uric acid excretion, potentially triggering gout attacks.
• Acard may interact with other medications, including methotrexate, probenecid, digoxin, lithium, diuretics, antihypertensives, and others.

Storage:

Store Acard at room temperature (not exceeding 25°C) in the original packaging to protect from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
