Arreno Capsule 10's belongs to the class of ‘anticoagulants’ used to prevent stroke who have had blood clots or had a mini-stroke. Stroke, also called cerebrovascular (CV) or brain stroke, occurs due to insufficient blood supply to the brain. It causes a decrease in oxygen and nutrient supply to the brain, impairing the function of the brain. This condition requires immediate medical attention to prevent permanent brain damage.
Arreno Capsule 10's contains Aspirin and Dipyridamole. Aspirin is a blood thinner. It has antithrombotic action that interferes with platelet functioning and does not let them stick together. Dipyridamole is an anticoagulant agent. It prevents the platelets from sticking together, thereby preventing the formation of blood clots. Together, Arreno Capsule 10's can effectively reduce the risk of stroke.
