Introduction
INTRODUCTION ABOUT ARRENO CAPSULEARRENO CAPSULE is a combination of Aspirin and Dipyridamole which belongs to the group of medicines called Antiplatelet agents. It is used to lower the risk of stroke in people who have had a mini-stroke (transient ischemic attack or TIA) or previous stroke due to a blood clot and are at high risk for another stroke. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts (or ruptures). When that happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood (and oxygen) it needs, so it and brain cells die. Transient ischemic attack is a stroke that lasts only a few minutes. It happens when the blood supply to part of the brain is briefly blocked. Symptoms of a TIA are like other stroke symptoms, but do not last as long. It is also called as TIA, mini stroke. Before taking ARRENO CAPSULE inform your doctor if you have heart disease, liver disease or kidney disease. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking ARRENO CAPSULE.
