ASS AbZ 100 mg TAH tablets
- The preparation inhibits, among other things, the adhesion and clumping of blood platelets (thrombocytes) and thus prevents the formation of blood clots (thrombi) (platelet aggregation inhibition).
-
It is applied
- in unstable angina pectoris (chest pain due to circulatory disorders in the coronary arteries) - as part of standard therapy.
- in case of acute myocardial infarction - as part of standard therapy.
- to prevent another heart attack after a first heart attack (for reinfarction prophylaxis).
- after operations or other interventions on arterial blood vessels (after arterial vascular surgical or interventional procedures, e.g. after aortocoronary vein bypass [ACVB], in percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty [PTCA]).
- For the prevention of temporary insufficient blood flow in the brain (TIA: transient ischemic attacks) and cerebral infarctions after precursor stages (e.g. temporary paralysis of the face or arm muscles or temporary loss of vision) have occurred.
