How it works
Torplat A Copack is a combination of two medicines: Ticagrelor and Aspirin. Ticagrelor is an antiplatelet medication while Aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with anti-platelet action. Together, they work by preventing platelets from sticking together, which decreases the formation of harmful blood clots. This lowers the chance of heart attack or stroke.
