The Benefits of Daily Aspirin: Reducing Heart Attack, Stroke, and Diabetes Risks

A recent Danish study presented at the ESC Congress 2023 in Amsterdam found that taking a daily aspirin after a heart attack can reduce the risk of future cardiac events or strokes. The study analyzed data from over 40,000 patients who had their first heart attack and took aspirin for a year following the event. Non-adherence to aspirin therapy was associated with an increased risk of recurrent heart attacks, strokes, or death. However, the protective effect of aspirin appeared to decrease slightly over time. The study supports current clinical guidelines recommending long-term aspirin therapy after a heart attack.
