A cardiologists' publications will comment to take immediately aspirin in the event of a heart attack and chew for faster effects. It's especially effective if taken within 30 minutes of the onset of symptoms. Aspirin is an anti-platelet agent that helps prevent blood clots that can be fatal. Aspirin has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attack and reduce the short-term risk of death among people suffering from heart attacks.
There is no evidence that an aspirin is contra-indicated for hypertensive individuals having a heart attack.
