Later, with the discovery that aspirin can also bring anti-platelet aggregation effect, this drug is very familiar to patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
I don't know when cardiovascular disease has become one of the main killers threatening health, and aspirin, as a commonly used drug to prevent thrombosis, has a very good protective effect on patients with cardiovascular disease, so can I take an aspirin every day?

Let's first understand the main efficacy and function of aspirin.
Relieve pain
Aspirin is a very common painkiller. People can use aspirin to relieve headaches, toothaches and dysmenorrhea.
Treat inflammation
With the growth of age, people are prone to senile arthritis, especially middle-aged and elderly people. Everyone can take aspirin to improve inflammation.
Prevention of thrombosis
Cerebral thrombosis is a vascular disease with high mortality, high recurrence and high disability rate.
Brain injury is harmful to people's health. If thrombosis occurs, aspirin can be taken to improve it.
Resist rheumatism
Aspirin also plays a very powerful role in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, and patients can obviously feel that it has certain anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects after taking it.

An aspirin a day, can the body bear it? Don't hide it, the doctor told the answer.
If cardiovascular diseases are not controlled, it will easily lead to adverse complications, which may kill people every minute. As a kind of pipeline widely distributed in the body, with the increase of age, blood will become sticky and the wall of blood vessels will become brittle and thin.
Once a blood vessel is blocked, the risk of rupture will greatly increase, and people's heart and brain will be damaged to varying degrees.
Aspirin is a very common anti-platelet aggregation drug, and its biggest feature is that it can effectively prevent platelet blockage and thrombosis.
Can effectively prevent the problem of atherosclerosis. For patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, taking an aspirin every day is helpful to stay away from the problem of blood vessel rupture and blockage, and can also minimize the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications.
The benefits of aspirin far outweigh the side effects on the body. The doctor said: everyone's tolerance and endurance to drugs are different. Some patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, taking the same drug for a long time in an organ or a certain part of the body, are likely to bring great rejection, but some patients will not.
For older middle-aged and elderly people, if aspirin is taken for a long time to prevent cardiovascular diseases, the body is prone to drug resistance and the drug loses its original efficacy. At this time, it will only bring side effects to their bodies and easily induce other complications.
For the sake of personal health, people who take the same medicine for a long time should go to the hospital regularly for reexamination and seek the help of doctors.
Once there is a problem, we should intervene in the first time to avoid accidents.
03
What happens when you take aspirin for a long time? Four side effects cannot be ignored.
Gastrointestinal reaction
Oral aspirin can easily irritate gastric mucosa, leading to indigestion, epigastric discomfort, nausea and vomiting.
Or it is easy to cause constipation after taking it, or even take it in large doses in a short time, leading to problems such as gastric ulcer and erosive gastritis.
Liver and kidney damage
After the drug enters the body, it will first be decomposed by the liver and then excreted by the kidney. For people with poor liver and kidney, taking aspirin is likely to cause damage to liver and kidney.
In addition, taking large doses of aspirin can easily lead to problems such as renal insufficiency and liver function damage.
Induced acute poisoning
Taking aspirin for a long time can easily lead to acute poisoning. When the drug concentration in the blood exceeds the standard, it is easy to cause dehydration, headache, tinnitus, dizziness, abdominal pain, nausea and other poisoning symptoms.
anaphylactic reaction
Taking aspirin for a long time can easily lead to immune system rejection and allergic reaction.
04
Who should take aspirin?
Before taking aspirin, you need to find a professional doctor to evaluate the medication and see if you are suitable for taking this medicine.
Clinically, patients with clear indications are generally recommended, such as patients with myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction, patients who have undergone bypass or stent surgery, and patients with coronary heart disease or carotid stenosis exceeding 50%.
If there are no related indications, just to prevent diseases, then aspirin is not needed to achieve the preventive effect.
05
How to take aspirin correctly?
Some people are afraid that taking aspirin will bring side effects to their health, so they choose to take it every other day. Actually, this is very incorrect.
The correct way to take it is to take an aspirin every day. I suggest you take it after dinner, which can reduce the damage to gastric mucosa.
06
If there are side effects, should I stop taking the medicine?
Taking aspirin for a long time is likely to have some side effects. If there are side effects, don't stop taking the medicine easily. You can reduce or eliminate them in some ways.
If the side effects are strong and have seriously affected our lives, we can seek the help of doctors and make reasonable improvements under the guidance of doctors.
If there is a problem, if there is nausea.
First of all, you should decide whether to take it before or after meals. If you take it correctly, you can take some stomach-protecting drugs to reduce discomfort.
If there is a black stool problem,
If there is a problem of gastrointestinal bleeding such as melena, you need to stop taking the medicine immediately and go to the hospital for relevant examination.
If the gums bleed,
If there are symptoms such as bleeding gums and ecchymosis, you need to contact a doctor to adjust the dose.
