How Cartia works

Low dose aspirin helps thin the blood and has been proven to help lower the risk of another heart attack or stroke.

How is it different?

Cartia has a Duentric® coating – which is designed to minimise the risk of irritation to the stomach lining.

With this Duentric coating, Cartia remains intact until it reaches your upper intestine. This helps minimise stomach irritation.
