Long Term Side Effects Of Ecosprin For 92 Yr Old Male

My father has been prescribed ecosprin 75 along with Dytor plus 10mg, prolomat XL and cardace 2.5 by a cardiologist. He is taking these combination for the past 6 years from 2009. Is it safe to continue ecosprin... at this age on a daily basis. Any small scratch anywhere in the body starts bleeding and takes a long time to clot.. recently his food intake has not even been 20% of his usual intake.. Please suggest any alternate or reduced dosage.

Hello, Devanara! How are you and your father?

Given the fact that he is 92, I have to make a guess that his doctor is doing something right and it would be best to continue following their directions.

While Ecosprin can cause blood thinning, which can cause bleeding that takes awhile to stop, it can also occur due to aging and the thin skin we develop as we get older, according to the NIH.

Do you use gauze and apply pressure? That will get it to stop the quickest and resist pulling the gauze or towel away to check on it, unless it starts to bleed through.

And don't be afraid to discuss your concerns with his doctor. They may have other ideas that will help.
