General Information
Cartia® 100mg enteric coated aspirin tablets to help prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Size: 28 Pack
WHAT CARTIA IS USED FOR
CARTIA is enteric coated (Duentric) low dose aspirin (100 mg). Low dose aspirin helps reduce blood stickiness, the tendency of blood to clot. CARTIA may be useful if you are at risk of angina, transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs or mini-strokes), stroke (due to a blood clot) or heart attacks if you already have heart or blood vessel disease.
The amount of aspirin in CARTIA is much less than you would need to take for a headache or other pain. If you require medication for temporary relief of these symptoms, please speak to your healthcare professional.
Ingredients:
The active ingredient in CARTIA is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) 100mg. Other ingredients in CARTIA are guar gum, and a coating system including sunset yellow FCF aluminium lake (CI 15985).
CARTIA preparations do not contain sucrose, gluten or tartrazine.
CARTIA is for use under medical supervision only.
