Hello
Welcome to HCM. Thanks for posting your query. I understand your concerns.
Yes you continue taking ecosprin 75 mg. It's nothing but very low dose of aspirin. It acts like a antiplatelet drug. You should take it after food not in empty stomach.

ACITROM should be taken after you consult your treating doctor. Your PT/INR is quite high.


Hope this helps you.

Thank you
