Why Choose Safety-Coated Ecotrin®?

Why Ecotrin

See how Ecotrin compares to other aspirin choices.

Ecotrin is the Stomach - Safe Aspirin Therapy Since it was first introduced in 1956, Ecotrin aspirin has held a long heritage as a safe and trusted product. Ecotrin is the only brand that offers a complete line of safety-coated stomach-safe strengths – 81mg Low, 325mg Regular and 500mg Maximum – for arthritis pain, heart attack prevention and overall heart health.

Since Ecotrin comes in a variety of heart-healthy strengths, talk to your doctor about which aspirin therapy dosage is right for your heart healthy program as part of a heart attack prevention regimen.

But rest assured, no matter which strength your doctor recommends, only Ecotrin daily aspirin therapy is always safety coated. It’s safer* for every day use, because it offers the benefit of stomach protection in addition to reducing the risk of heart attack. That’s why Ecotrin is the aspirin choice of many doctors, cardiologists, pharmacists and people like you who take aspirin for heart health.

Only safety-coated Ecotrin aspirin offers all of this.

Ecotrin® vs. Advil®
Advil does not contain aspirin at all. Therefore, it does not have the same heart health benefits that you'll find in Ecotrin aspirin. When your doctor recommends aspirin for heart health, make sure you're taking The Safer Aspirin® — Ecotrin.

If you take ibuprofen (Advil) for pain and aspirin for heart health, you should know that a recent study has demonstrated that ibuprofen may interfere with the way aspirin works to protect your heart. The study that was published in The New England Journal of Medicine indicates that ibuprofen can reduce the blood-thinning benefits of aspirin and lessen or lower its ability to prevent blood clotting.
