Enteric coated aspirin, either 75 mg or 81 mg, take your pick, IMHO. They are baby aspirins. A single, regular aspirin tablet is 325 mg.

Yabut. What if a girl is allergic to aspirin?

Aspirin is truly a miracle drug (I wouldn’t have my 3 living children if not for low dose aspirin) that was discovered well over a hundred years ago (and IIRC willow bark? was chewed for palliative effects going waaaaaaay back) that has been proven to have more and more positive uses as time goes by...OTOH, my father died at 39 from a massively bleeding ulcer (he also had other medical problems) when he was prescribed regular doses (325 mg) of aspirin for pain, and he took many a day...

As with all things, you need to be proactive in your own medical care, and not just rely on your doctor/s to tell you what you should do!

BTW, when I took LDA after my first child was born (and weaned) in hopes of getting pregnant again naturally, I was surprised to discovered that my chronic tinnitus disappeared! When I stopped taking the aspirin shortly before my twins were born, the tinnitus returned. I’m curious to find out what happens when I start taking the aspirin again after my twins are weaned!

Carp... Does anyone really fall for this? Medical evidence keeps changing pro/con no matter what the medicine. Sorry, but I have a much confidence in medicine as I do in hospitals and their infection rate... At your own risk...

My advice, just don’t take anything unless absolutely necessary. Okay, obey today’s advice, but be ready to to 180 degrees in a few months...mercy... They don’t have a clue anyway...

Oh, an simple things like aspirin are okay...don’t despair..

I started taking 325mg aspirin everyday when I read that it may help prevent lung cancer. My sister found out she has lung cancer a couple months ago.

Guidelines Spell Out Prophylactic Aspirin Use

You mean, as Ann Landers used to say, held tightly between the knees?

Cheers!
