Posso prendere Aspirina e Omeprazolo insieme?

Perché succede

Omeprazole reduces the amount of acid in your stomach. Some aspirin tablets have a special coating (enteric coating) designed to dissolve only when they reach the gut. By making the stomach less acidic, omeprazole might cause this coating to break down too early in the stomach, or it may slightly alter how the aspirin is absorbed into the bloodstream. Despite this, the overall effect of the aspirin is usually not changed enough to be a concern.

You can take these medicines together. In fact, doctors often prescribe them together specifically to protect the stomach lining if you need to take aspirin long-term. If you are taking aspirin to prevent heart problems or strokes, continue to take it as prescribed. If you notice any unusual stomach pain or indigestion, mention it to your pharmacist or doctor.

Asma

Non assumere aspirina se hai una storia di asma scatenata da aspirina o altri farmaci antinfiammatori non steroidei (FANS), poiché può causare una reazione allergica grave e potenzialmente letale o un attacco d'asma.

Gravidanza (terzo trimestre)

Do not take aspirin during the last 3 months of pregnancy unless specifically prescribed by a specialist, as it can cause serious heart and kidney problems in the unborn baby and increase the risk of bleeding during delivery.

Diarrea grave

Contact your doctor immediately if you develop severe or persistent watery diarrhoea; omeprazolo can increase your risk of a serious bowel infection caused by Clostridium difficile.

Alcol

Drinking alcohol while taking aspirin can increase the risk of irritation and bleeding in your stomach. It is best to limit alcohol intake or avoid it if you have a history of stomach issues.
