Lospirin is used:
To reduce risk:
- fatal outcome in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction;
- morbidity and mortality in patients who have had myocardial infarction;
- transient ischemic attacks (TIA) and stroke in patients with TIA;
- morbidity and mortality in stable and unstable angina;
- myocardial infarction in patients with a high risk of developing cardiovascular complications (diabetes mellitus, controlled arterial hypertension) and individuals with a multifactorial risk of cardiovascular disease (hyperlipidemia, obesity, smoking, old age).
For prevention:
- thrombosis and embolism after vascular surgery (percutaneous transluminal catheter angioplasty, carotid endarterectomy, coronary artery bypass grafting, arteriovenous bypass grafting);
- deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism after long-term immobilization (after surgery).
For secondary prevention of strokes.
Composition
Active ingredient: acetylsalicylic acid.
1 tablet contains 75 mg of acetylsalicylic acid.
Excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, pregelatinized starch, colloidal anhydrous silicon dioxide, stearic acid, Opadry Y-1-7000 white, Acryl-Eze 93O18359 white.
Contraindication
- Hypersensitivity to acetylsalicylic acid, other salicylates or to any component of the drug.
- History of asthma induced by the use of salicylates or substances with a similar effect, especially NSAIDs.
- Hemorrhagic diathesis.
- Acute peptic ulcers.
- Severe renal failure.
- Severe liver failure.
- Severe heart failure.
- Gout.
- Combination with methotrexate at a dosage of 15 mg/week or more.
- Age under 18 years. Acetylsalicylic acid can cause the development of Reye’s syndrome.
- The last trimester of pregnancy.
Method of application
The drug should be taken orally, 30-60 minutes before meals, without chewing, with sufficient liquid.
Features
Pregnant women
Salicylates should be used with caution in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. Salicylates are contraindicated in the third trimester of pregnancy.
Children
Do not use on children.
Drivers
No research was conducted.
Overdose
Symptoms of severe poisoning may develop slowly, for example within 12–24 hours after administration. After oral administration of ASA doses up to 150 mg/kg body weight, moderate intoxication may develop, and at doses > 300 mg/kg body weight, severe intoxication may develop.
Chronic salicylate poisoning can be latent because its symptoms are nonspecific. Moderate chronic intoxication usually occurs only after repeated ingestion of large doses.
Side effects
Immune system: hypersensitivity reactions, including asthmatic status, skin reactions, respiratory, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular disorders, rash, edema, pruritus, cardiorespiratory failure, anaphylactic shock; erythematous/eczematous skin reactions, severe skin reactions, including exudative erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis; angioedema, allergic edema, rhinitis, nasal congestion, shock-like hypotension.
Metabolic disorders: hyperuricemia with corresponding laboratory indicators and clinical manifestations (gout attacks), hypoglycemia, acid-base imbalance.
From the nervous system: headache, dizziness, disorientation, confusion.
On the part of the organs of vision: visual impairment.
On the part of the auditory organs: hearing impairment, ringing in the ears (tinnitus).
Interaction
The use of acetylsalicylic acid and methotrexate in doses of 15 mg/week or more increases the hematological toxicity of methotrexate (due to a decrease in the renal clearance of methotrexate by anti-inflammatory agents and displacement of methotrexate from plasma protein binding by salicylates).
Salicylates reduce the therapeutic efficacy of uricosuric agents for the excretion of uric acid. This may provoke the development of gout in patients with reduced uric acid excretion. The combined use of acetylsalicylic acid and uricosuric agents should be avoided.
Storage conditions
Store in original packaging at a temperature not exceeding 25°C. Keep out of the reach of children.
