Controlled hbp and cholesterol. non diabetic, no 1st degree relatives w/hd. normal angiogram. baby aspirin daily a good idea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check with doctor: Those guidelines have recently shifted as to whether baby aspirin is safe to take or not anymore with high blood pressure or high cholesterol to not cause possible bleeding from stroke. So a lot depends on your drugs you are on, and where you fall in the risk factor category. Best to check with a doctor who knows your medical history intimately.
