Doctor's Orders
If you take aspirin regularly to thin your blood and reduce your risk of stroke, don't stop taking it without your doctor's supervision.
A recent study reveals that stopping aspirin therapy abruptly could increase stroke risk, especially in people with heart disease. Aspirin helps prevent the platelet clumping that increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Stick to your doctor-recommended aspirin regimen and consult your doctor before making any changes.
