About Loprin DS Tablet

Aspirin use varies according to its strength. In low doses (about 75 mg), Aspirin acts as a blood-thinning or antiplatelet agent used to prevent heart attack and stroke. On the other hand, a high dose (about 325 mg) acts as an analgesic, which helps relieve minor pain.

Low-dose aspirin makes the blood less sticky, reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke. High-dose aspirin inhibits the activity of the cyclooxygenase (COX) and prostaglandins, which cause pain and inflammation.
