Durlaza

Durlaza (aspirin extended-release capsules) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) specifically formulated to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular events in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease. It works by inhibiting platelet aggregation, which helps prevent blood clots from forming. The extended-release formulation of Durlaza allows for a once-daily dosing regimen, providing consistent protection throughout the day and night.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Durlaza Work?

Durlaza works by irreversibly inhibiting cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), an enzyme responsible for the production of thromboxane A2, a chemical that promotes platelet aggregation. By reducing thromboxane A2 levels, Durlaza decreases the ability of platelets to stick together, thus reducing the formation of blood clots and lowering the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Durlaza exactly as prescribed, once daily, and do not crush or chew the capsules to maintain the extended-release effect.
  • Avoid taking Durlaza with other NSAIDs unless directed by your healthcare provider, as this can increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
