Cardiomagnyl - a drug used to prevent complications of diseases associated with an increased ability of platelets to stick together (aggregation). Cardiomagnyl not used to treat diseases.

Cardiomagnyl - a drug for the prevention of thrombosis

The main active ingredient in kardiomagnile is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). This medication is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), before it was used as an antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic. But today, produced significantly superior to aspirin NSAIDs on all these properties, and with far fewer side effects.

In recent years, increasingly aspirin administered prophylactically, using another of its properties - the ability to inhibit platelet aggregation, as platelets, gluing, form the basis for the formation of clots. Blood clots clog blood vessels and tissues deprived of food die. This mechanism is the basis of myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke and other diseases.

It is the prevention of serious complications. Since cardiomagnil appointed albeit in small doses, but long courses, great importance is attached to its possible side effects. The most dangerous side effect of this drug is irritating to the gastric mucosa. In long courses receiving cardiomagnyl this may lead to the formation of erosions, ulcers in the stomach and even the appearance of gastric bleeding.

To avoid irritating the stomach wall in cardiomagnyl composition includes magnesium hydroxide.

Preventive courses cardiomagnyl for various cardiovascular diseases

In diseases of the heart and vascular congestion often occurs in some parts of the circulatory system. Such diseases include, in particular, coronary heart disease, which develops against the backdrop of deposits on the walls of the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle (coronary arteries), atherosclerotic plaques. As a result, even with a small spasm of altered vascular permeability is disturbed them, which is manifested in the form of angina attacks - sudden severe pain in the heart, favoring the left hand. Such pain should immediately remove the nitroglycerine which expands the coronary vessels, if this is not done, there will be a myocardial infarction - heart muscle tissue death. Myocardial infarction can begin in the event that closes the lumen of a coronary artery thrombus.

The same mechanism of the disease and occurs when cerebral circulatory disorders - it leads to ischemic stroke Stroke - a serious brain injury . Dangerous as migraine I have a migraine. What to do?   - A sharp sudden dilation of the blood vessels of the brain with the stagnation of the blood in them, which is manifested by severe headaches, sometimes on one side of the head. Therefore, for the prevention of myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke are assigned long-term preventive courses cardiomagnyl.

Cardiomagnyl also need to receive during surgery on blood vessels - it is the prevention of thrombus formation, separation and their "journey" through the circulatory system, followed by a possible occlusion of large vessels - a disease called thromboembolism Thromboembolism: severe complications .

How to receive

Part of the cardiomagnyl acetylsalicylic acid has many contraindications and side effects, so Courses cardiomagnyl must appoint a physician.

This cardiomagnil different from other drugs containing aspirin and enteric-coated to prevent stomach irritation. The stomach is protected kardiomagnile magnesium hydroxide, which is within the tablet.

For the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes Diabetes - threatening and incurable disease , Obesity, as well as smokers and elderly people cardiomagnil appoint the first day of two pills, then one tablet a day. To prevent recurrent myocardial infarction cardiomagnil take one or two tablets once per day. For the prevention of thromboembolism after surgery on vessels cardiomagnil take one tablet a day. The duration of prophylactic determined by your doctor.

Cardiomagnyl - a quality drug for the prevention of complications of cardiovascular disease.

Cardiomagnyl - a combined drug, the main active ingredient of which is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug aspirin has also antiplatelet properties (the ability to prevent the grouping of platelets). In addition, the composition includes magnesium hydroxide cardiomagnyl which prevents the side effects of aspirin.

How does cardiomagnil

Included in the cardiomagnyl aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) exerts antiplatelet effect by inhibiting the action of an enzyme involved in the synthesis of thromboxane A2. Thromboxane A2 - is a biologically active substance, which stimulates the formation and platelet aggregation capacity - the formation of clusters, which then become the basis of a blood clot.

Today, researchers believe that aspirin has other properties that help him prevent blood clots, but they have not yet been studied.

Aspirin - a drug that has a lot of side effects. But for the prevention of thrombosis it is used in doses many times smaller than an antipyretic and anti-inflammatory agent. Assign cardiomagnil for a long time, that creates a risk of the development of ulcerative lesions of the mucous membrane of the stomach or duodenum aspirin. In order to counteract this side effect of aspirin in cardiomagnyl composition includes magnesium hydroxide.

As formed clots

Thrombosis is called blood clotting within the lumen of a blood vessel in a living person. Clot formation prevents the flow of blood (and with it nutrients and oxygen) to the vital organs. Lead to thrombosis of the vessel wall damage, disruption of the blood system and slowing blood flow. Such disturbances can cause various diseases (diabetes, obesity, infection, heart and vascular diseases, etc.), intoxications, stress, intake of various drugs and other.

If the damage of the vessel wall defenses are trying to repair the damage, this rush to the site of injury platelets rapidly accumulate a large number of them (platelet aggregation). Next compensatory response - the formation of a particular enzyme thrombin which promotes conversion of fibrinogen plasma protein into insoluble fibrin protein constituting filament. The fibrin strands stuck platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells - it already has a blood clot. Finally, a blood clot formed after reduction (blood clot removed from the liquid part). Such a clot firmly closes the lumen of the vessel, without missing the blood to the tissues of an organ.

The risk of thrombosis in the fact that blood clots can break off and migrate through the blood vessels - a blood clot is called emboli, and disease that it can cause - thromboembolism Thromboembolism: severe complications . An embolus may suddenly block the vital blood vessels, causing instantaneous death of the patient.

Therefore, it is important to prevent thrombosis.

What diseases can be prevented by using cardiomagnyl

If you apply cardiomagnil rates for coronary heart disease, it is possible to prevent myocardial infarction. If myocardial infarction in a patient has been, it is possible to prevent the repeated, however, this would require a large daily dose of cardiomagnyl than for the primary prevention of myocardial infarction.

Cardiomagnil has great importance for the prevention of ischemic stroke, this disease is one of the first places on the disability of patients.

Very dangerous thrombosis of blood vessels of the mesentery of the intestine, it can lead to necrosis of the intestinal wall, peritonitis and death of the patient - cardiomagnil can warn and such a threat.

Finally, thrombophlebitis limb vessels and dangerous disease is prolonged and often complicated by thromboembolism. In operations on blood vessels cardiomagnil prescribed after surgery for prevention tromboetboly.

When cardiomagnil contraindicated

Aspirin has a lot of contraindications for use. This erosive and ulcerative lesions of the stomach and intestines (including bleeding) in the acute stage, hemorrhagic stroke, disorders of blood clotting, "Aspirin asthma" (bronchospasm in patients receiving aspirin), heavy-stage renal disease, some types of enzyme deficiency ( lack of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase), pregnancy, breast-feeding Breastfeeding - a personal choice   feeding, age and 18 years of age, individual intolerance of components.

In many diseases cardiomagnil prescribed with caution, as it has a number of side effects. It allergic reactions, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain Abdominal pain: Types and Symptoms , Ulcerative lesions and bleeding from the stomach and intestines, liver function abnormalities, seizures, bronchospasm, dizziness, sleep disturbances Dreams: how to understand our dreams , Hemorrhagic stroke, changes in the cell composition of blood.

With cardiomagnyl can prevent serious diseases.
