Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that Having high cholestrol you must talk with your doctor for taking a statins. This group of drugs reduce blood cholesterol. But taking a low dose aspirin is a anti platelet drugs help in plug forming. So continue with the low dose aspirin and ask for statins to your doctor. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
