Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule
Composition:
- Aspirin 75 mg
- Atorvastatin 20 mg
Description:
Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule is a combination medicine designed to help prevent serious cardiovascular events like heart attack and stroke. It combines Aspirin (75 mg), an antiplatelet agent that helps prevent blood clots, with Atorvastatin (20 mg), a statin that lowers high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This dual action makes Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule effective in reducing the risk of heart disease in individuals prone to these conditions.
Uses:
- Prevention of heart attack and stroke
- Management of high cholesterol and triglycerides
- Reduces risk of blood clot formation
- Protects heart and blood vessels in high-risk patients
Dosage:
- Usually taken once daily or as prescribed by your doctor.
- Swallow the Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule whole with water, preferably after food, to minimize stomach upset.
Side Effects:
- Stomach upset, acidity, or nausea
- Muscle pain or weakness
- Increased liver enzymes
- Bleeding tendency in rare cases
Precautions:
- Use Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule with caution if you have liver or kidney disease.

- Ecosprin AV 75/20mg Capsule is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically prescribed by a doctor.
- Always inform your doctor about all other medications you are taking, especially other blood thinners or cholesterol-lowering medicines, to avoid potential interactions with Aspirin and Atorvastatin.
