Information

CARTIA 100mg DUENTRIC coated low dose aspirin

Has your doctor recommended low dose aspirin? You may have been told about the benefits of Cartia.

Cartia helps prevent blood clotting and reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke in patients with known cardiovascular or cerebovascular disease.

Why choose Cartia?

Duentric coating helps
protect stomach lining from irritation that can be caused by aspirin.

Heart protection that is
gentle* on the stomach.

Cartia is proudly
Australian made.

Why is the Duentric coating on Cartia so important?

Uncoated aspirin is released in the stomach where it may cause irritation to the stomach lining and may also increase the risk of gastric ulcers.

Luckily, not all low dose aspirins are the same.

Cartia has a specially formulated Duentric coating, that prevents the aspirin from being broken down in the stomach. Instead, the aspirin dissolves lower down in the intestines - which means less contact with the stomach lining and less risk of irritation.

How to take Cartia?

The recommended dose is
one Cartia 100 mg low dose
aspirin tablet taken at the
same time every day.

Take Cartia with a glass
of water. Cartia should be swallowed whole,
without crushing, chewing or breaking the tablet.

Cartia can be taken with or without food.
Food does not
alter the effects of low dose aspirin.
