Wondering if anyone can help me!! I was rushing out this morning and have forgotten to take my ticagrelor and think my aspirin as I normally take them together in the morning. First of all will o be ok as I am now worried as I am only 5 months post stent so have gone the whole day with no new blood thinners in my system. Secondly I have just taken my evening ticagrelor and am now wondering about taking a 75mg aspirin as I am sure I didn’t take it this morning. My main worry is I have read somewhere that there is a certain dose you shouldn’t exceed of aspirin a day of taking ticagrelor (I think it’s 300mg) but just wondered if anyone knew for sure because I would want it to be I take a second one now having taken this mornings and the dose of the day will be 150mg if I did take my morning one. Hope this all makes sense.
Thank you in advance

Missing a pill is nothing to worry about, if you read the drug instructions in the packed I think you’ll find it says don’t take a double dose, ie don’t take two at the same time, but if you remember earlier enough take it then. However, you have nothing to worry about just missing one, if you were to miss several then I’d worry. If you have a mobile try downloading an App called Medisafe, it’s free and you can add your pills, dosage, refill reminders and times to take pills and it sets alarms when to take them, highly recommend it.
Whilst NOT wanting to devalue the advice from Carokai in anyway, I personally have found this type of pill box really helpful and it helps a great cause!
