This year, an estimated 1.4 million Americans will have a new or recurrent heart attack.
Individuals are never “cured” of addictions. Instead, they learn how to manage their disease to lead healthy, balanced lives.
It is widely believed that giving a daily oral dose of aspirin to heart attack patients improves their chances of survival because the aspirin blocks the formation of new blood clots.
Aspirin is the most widely used drug in the world. It has even been recognized as such by the Guinness Book of World Records.
