Aggrenox Classification 

Aggrenox is a combination medicine of aspirin and dipyridamole, Aspirin belongs to a category of drugs referred to as salicylates that reduce a substance within the body that causes pain, fever, and inflammation. Dipyridamole, on the other hand, is a nucleoside transport inhibitor and PDE3 inhibitor that reduces blood clots and causes blood vessels to dilate quickly. This combination medicine works as an antiplatelet drug that stops the platelets from clumping together to form a blood clot, allowing the blood to keep on flowing to the brain.  

Aggrenox Uses 

Aggrenox is employed to scale back the danger of stroke in patients who already had a mini-stroke, also referred to as Transient Ischemic Attack TIA. It is caused by a blood clot that is clogged in the blood vessels in the brain that causes a temporary lack of blood flow, this condition does not cause a permanent disability but should be prevented from reoccurring. This medication is prescribed to prevent the aggregation of platelets, although it is a natural process for the prevention of blood loss when blood vessels are damaged, it is not good for people who had mini-strokes so this should be prevented.
