The Benefits

Aspirin can reduce your risk of heart attack or stroke. It can:

  • Improve the flow of blood to the heart and brain
  • Help keep your arteries open if you have had a stroke or angioplasty

If you have already had a heart attack or stroke, daily aspirin can lower your risk of having another one.
