DESCRIPTION
Preva AS 150 Tablet is used for the prevention of heart attack and stroke. A heart attack occurs when a blood clot blocks the blood flow to the heart. This blockage of arteries is most often an accumulation of fat, cholesterol and other substances, which form a plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries). Signs of a heart attack include chest pain, upper body pain, sweating, nausea, fatigue and trouble breathing.
Preva AS 150 Tablet is composed of two medicines: Aspirin and Clopidogrel. These are blood thinners (anti-platelet) that prevent the formation of a clot in the blood vessels. Aspirin acts as a blood-thinning or anti-platelet agent in a low dose (about 75 mg) to prevent heart attack and stroke. Clopidogrel acts by preventing blood clots if you have severe chest pain (unstable angina or heart attack), stroke, and peripheral arterial disease (heart problem due to narrowed blood vessels). Preva AS 150 Tablet helps in the free flow of blood, thereby preventing a heart attack, stroke, deep vein thrombosis (blood clot in the vein), and pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the arteries of the lungs).
