Can you take percocet and 81 mg aspirin?

Low dose aspirin is given to maintain normal blood clotting and therefore protect against problems like a heart attack in people at risk. (Heart attack is caused by blockage of the arteries in your heart by a blood clot).

If you have high blood pressure and your doctor thinks you might have an extra risk she will recommend you take low-dose aspirin. However it is important to understand that it is not a treatment for high blood pressure - it is to reduce your cardiovascular risk.
