BLOOD THINNER WITH ASPIRIN PROVES RISKY
Some people taking the blood thinner Plavix on top of aspirin to try to prevent heart attacks, as many doctors recommend, now have good reason to stop.

The drug combination not only didn't help most people in a newly released study, but it unexpectedly almost doubled the risk of death, heart attack or stroke for those with no clogged arteries but with worrisome conditions like high blood pressure and high cholesterol. |
I have high blood pressure myself, and it makes me wonder if its just the combo of the two or if just one can cause the problem. But I haven't read anything about just aspirin, so I suppose I'm OK.
