Description

Active Ingredient: The main active ingredient is Aspirin (325 mg), which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
Enteric Coating: The tablets are "enteric-coated." This special coating prevents the tablet from dissolving in the stomach. Instead, it dissolves in the small intestine, which significantly reduces the risk of stomach upset and irritation that can be a common side effect of aspirin.
Dosage Strength: This is a "regular strength" formulation at 325 mg per tablet.
Form: It is an oral tablet.
Packaging: The product code 921-01-GCP typically refers to a bottle containing 100 tablets. Geri-Care is a brand known for providing medications for institutional use and the geriatric community.

Pain Relief: It is used for the temporary relief of mild to moderate pain from various conditions, including:
- Headaches
- Muscle aches
- Toothaches
- Menstrual pain
- Minor arthritis pain
Fever Reduction: Aspirin is an effective antipyretic, meaning it is used to reduce fever associated with colds and other illnesses.
Cardiovascular Protection: Under a doctor's direction, 325 mg aspirin is often used for its antiplatelet properties. It can help prevent blood clots, which is crucial for:
- Preventing a second heart attack.
- Preventing a second clot-related (ischemic) stroke.
- Managing certain cardiovascular conditions.

Important Considerations:

Because of the risk of Reye's syndrome, a rare but serious illness, aspirin should not be given to children or teenagers recovering from chickenpox or flu-like symptoms unless directed by a doctor.
Individuals with a history of stomach ulcers or bleeding problems, or those taking blood-thinning medications, should consult a healthcare professional before using aspirin.
The enteric coating is designed to protect the stomach, but it is still important to take the medication as directed and be aware of potential side effects.
