Asprin 75 MG Tablet DT is used to treat pain, and reduce fever. It also has anti-platelet (prevents clot formation) properties, thus sometimes used to treat or prevent heart attacks, strokes (decreased blood flow to your brain), and chest pain. Asprin 75 MG Tablet DT works by reducing substances in your body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation (redness and swelling).

It is important to take this medicine at the same time every day to maintain a constant level of medicine in your body. Asprin 75 MG Tablet DT should not be taken if you are allergic to it.
