I thought aspirin was an NSAID.

Depressing... you know, the more I read about how everything we do, or eat, or take is bad for us, and everything we don’t do, or don’t eat, or don’t take is vital for our survival... I start to get the feeling that we’re all gonna die someday. :-)

The article is a little confusing. Aspirin is an NSAID. The article makes it sound like it isn’t.

My aspirin label says NSAID.

I take one every day.

So, now we have “good” NSAID and “bad” NSAID?

I recently read an expert source that suggested that the benefits of aspirin were so mild that these benefits were countered by the increased risks of bleeding and such that are known to be associated with aspirin use.

Acetaminophen does not interfere with aspirin’s anti-clotting properties. It is NOT an NSAID, though, since it relieves pain and lowers fevers, but it is not an anti-inflammatory medicine.

Combined with aspirin, you get the anti-clotting, pain relief, lower fever, and anti-inflammatory properties.
