Ecosprin‑325 contains aspirin, which helps prevent heart attacks by reducing blood clot formation. Higher strengths are usually used in acute or specific situations, while lower strengths are more common for long-term prevention. Its use must be individualised based on your health, and a doctor should decide if it’s appropriate. Never take it on your own, as risks and benefits vary for each person.

If aspirin is causing breathing problems after your stroke, your doctor may recommend alternatives to prevent further strokes. Do not stop aspirin on your own and consult your doctor to find a safe substitute.
