How Does It Work?

• Sprin is an antiplatelet medicine. It inhibits the action of an enzyme, which makes platelets aggregate together to form a blood clot. When clot formation occurs in blood vessels, blood flow is obstructed or blocked, which is dangerous in cases of heart attack and leads to stroke or chest pain (angina).
• Aspirin in low doses stops these platelets from clumping together to form a clot so that blood flows without obstruction in the arteries.

Interactions with other medicines

• Concomitant use of methotrexate (used to treat certain types of cancer) with aspirin should be avoided.
• Aspirin reverses the effect of probenecid (used to treat gout) hence concomitant use should be avoided.
• Other anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents must be used cautiously with aspirin due to the risk of bleeding.
• Sprin increases the blood-glucose-lowering effect of certain antidiabetics. Hence, it must be used cautiously in people receive antidiabetic medicines.
• Aspirin increases the levels of Digoxin (used for certain heart conditions) and Lithium (used for brain-related conditions).
• Aspirin may reduce the blood pressure-lowering effect of antihypertensive medicines like water pills. Inform the doctor.
• Other medicines like steroids, painkillers, antacids and immunomodulators may interact with the action of the medicine or may produce some undesirable effects. Inform the doctor about the medication history.
