Compound acetylsalicylic acid tablets
Indication: Salicylic acid analgesics, anti-inflammatory, antipyretics, anti-rheumatic and platelet inhibition drugs can be used clinically in the following situations. (1) Analgesics and antipyretics: They can relieve mild or moderate pain, such as headaches, toothaches, neuralgia, muscle pain and menstrual pain. They are also used to reduce fever for colds, flu, etc. This product can only relieve symptoms and cannot treat the causes of pain and fever, so other drugs must be used at the same time for causal treatment. (2) Anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic: It is the first choice for the treatment of rheumatic fever. After taking the medicine, it can reduce fever, reduce inflammation, improve joint symptoms, and reduce erythrocyte sedimentation rate, but it cannot eliminate the basic pathological changes of rheumatism, nor can it prevent heart damage and other complications. If there is obvious myocarditis, it is generally recommended to use adrenal cortex hormones first, and then add this product after the rheumatic symptoms are controlled and before the hormone is stopped.
