A member asked:
Should we give heparin or aspirin to hypertensive patient or is it treat hypertension??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Neither aspirin nor heparin is a treatment for hypertension. While aspirin is generally safe, heparin should only be use used under the supervision of a doctor. It is important to treat hypertension to prevent heart disease. It would be prudent to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.
