Aspirin vs Plavix

Aspirin

Plavix

Aspirin is used to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain from conditions such as muscle aches, toothaches, common cold, and headaches. It may also be used to reduce pain and swelling in conditions such as arthritis. Aspirin is known as a salicylate and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking a certain natural substance in your body to reduce pain and swelling. Consult your doctor before treating a child younger than 12 years. Your doctor may direct you to take a low dose of aspirin to prevent blood clots. This effect reduces the risk of stroke and heart attack. If you have recently had surgery on clogged arteries (such as bypass surgery, carotid endarterectomy, coronary stent), your doctor may direct you to use aspirin in low doses as a "blood thinner" to prevent blood clots.

Plavix Oral is used to treat the following: Myocardial Reinfarction Prevention, Non-Q Wave Heart Attack, Acute ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, Acute Syndrome of the Heart, Unpredictable Severe Constricting Chest Pain, Prevention for a Blood Clot going to the Brain, Treatment to Prevent Peripheral Artery Thromboembolism

Asprin is found naturally in willows. Try chewing on willow leaves,bark or twigs next time you are outdoors and get a tooth hurting you. It works.

I've had bypass surgery,stents and valve replacement for Coronary Arteries clogging over the period since 1991. Now, at 90, using Plavix among other medications, I am very active and symptom free for the past 4 years. My age is not recognizable at all in my appearance. Plavix must be a contributor for my current good health.

Plavix and daily asprin have effectively relieved my 100% Blocked RCA and 25% LCA. I have been on this program for over 3 yrs and felt it worth while. The Cardiologist reviews all labs annualy.

Caused liver failure. I now have immune problems related to the liver failure. I have had to be on a regimen of steroids for 6 months. I am now having to go back on steroids because my liver counts are going back up.
