aggrenox cheap

Does anyone know what to take for an alternative to Aggrenox? I had a TIA almost 4 years ago and was put on Aggrenox, well, my husband will be losing his job in a week due to the economy which also means we will be losing our health insurance as well. I asked my doctor if he could take me off it and put me on something else and all he said was he would prefer I stayed on Aggrenox. I don't think we can afford it because it is $305 for a month supply!

Aggrenox does have aspirin in it. It is recommended for strokes, as you already know. I'm not sure why the Dr has taken away the Aggrenox. Maybe he feels that taking aspirin is equivalent with less side effects? Aspirin does work well to help prevent stokes and heart attacks. So, there was no reason given for the change?

I was put on Aggrenox/Aspirin after my stroke about 2 months ago. Does anyone on the same treatment take any kind of Vitamins/Herbs with this medication?

Hi Linda, The lupus anticoagulants usually interfere with blood clotting and are also factors for thrombosis. Patients with a lupus anticoagulant are prone to excess bleeding, repeated miscarriages, thrombosis and strokes. Patients with a lupus anticoagulant that presents atleast twice and a history of thrombosis should be given indefinite treatment with anticoagulants. Thrombosis can be prevented with heparin administration and treated with heparin and warfarin.

Does anyone take vitamins/herbs with aggrenox and aspirin?

any thoughts? Should I be afraid of cardio exercise? should I have LDL aphreses? NOw on Aggrenox and off Effient but on all the other same meds Additional info: Since Jan, I quit smoking, lost 45 lbs, lowered LDL by 300 points (to 127) and raised HDL by 25 pts(to 40) lowered triglic to 70. what the heck?

The best thing to do is go on 1/2 price day (the last day of the sale) and get a ton of clothes for cheap!

I've found that Aggrenox seems to work without side effects. It's primarily baby aspirin, but also contains a drug that prevents platelets from sticking together. I've taken it twice a day since my stroke, and it appears to work, but who ever knows?

to Mayo and with all saying the same its still not sinking into this head... there is no fix... He has been sent home on a blood thinner (aggrenox) as to not thin the blood to much... With a healthy heart pumping against a 20% opening (when last tested)... So at night he is on oxgen to slow down the heart at night, for the heart pumps harder as ones breathing slows as we sleep... We live 30 mins from the closest hospital which isn't set up to handle this so life fight is another step...

I take 16 or 17 medications including the all inclusive plavix. a 3.25 aspiriin. AGGRENOX,Zocor,and a host of others.I watch my diet and exercise until it hurts to prove to my Dr. that I'm not just lying around. With your "scientific ' MINDS can you help?

Ohh yeah, the age difference is hard, but if they have any gaming systems (like wii, ds, playstation) you can usually find a really cheap game for them like 5-10 dollars, and put it to all of them, and then get the 4 year old something smaller, since he/she is the only child, and it will be only for him/her.

smoking is bad period. cheap or expensive. put them down while you can. its totally not worth it. i didnt realize how rude it is to smoke around non smokers. when someone lights up next to me now i get really angry. plus dude, when you smoke you smell horrible. but yeah smoking cheap **** is probably worse.

And this boat was NOT cheap. Anyways, so for my birthday which is in August too I figured he would spend the same on me since its for my birthday and anniversary and make up for Mother's Day. But he didn't. He bought me a $100 purse that is the ugliest thing in the world. I think I am more hurt at the fact that he bought me something I don't like at all.

Are cheap home pregnancy test less accurate than the more expensive clear blue ones?

In June '08 I was sitting watching TV when my left side from my head down to my leg became stiff and numb. Went to the ER and checked by 5 neuronogists, had scans, MRI & other tests. Their consensus was a brain event in the rt. thalemus. For 2 & 1/2 yrs I was living with a 5 out of 10 sensation but last Dec. '10 as I was having dinner, the sensation became worse like an 8 out of 10 and I'm having increased trouble moving my whole left side.

you MUST contact your prescribing dr to get approval to stop this medication. Aggrenox, Plavix, and Aspirin must be discontinued for 7 days prior to injection and Ticlid 14 days prior to injection. Coumadin should be discontinued 3-4 days prior to injection and you will need to have blood work completed within 24 hours prior to procedure. drink 1-2 full cups water 60 minutes prior to injection. eat a LIGHT meal.

I went through a very similiar situation with my father 12 years ago, but we found out about it because he had a stroke. He was 100% blocked on the right hand side and 95% blocked on the left hand side. Like your father, his arteries in the back are also blocked at about 80%. I remember the surgeon said that the arteries in the back of the neck carry a 20% mortality rate in order for them to be repaired. They put him on medication to control the situation.

About 1-1/2 months ago he started experiencing mild itching on his legs and has now become chronic all over his body. Most of his meds have rash and itching side effects. Aggrenox was just changed to Plavix, but the itching has not stopped. 325mg of aspirin is also a future consideration as a blood thinner. He was given Ativan 0.5mg two days ago to stop the itching. The first night he practically scratched two wholes in his paralyzed arm.

i am learning, over the course of 1 yr, the length of my relationship that my companion is extremely cheap. in fact, he is the cheapest person i have ever known in my life. i am 60 he 67 and i don't think this will change. just a few tidbits so far...when going to a dance he told me not to order ant drinks as they are too expensive and he was bring water in the car and we could drink that if we got thirsty....the soft drinks were $1.50 each.........
