I bought at Costco Myrtle Beach Aspirin 81mg... I would like to know if they are like Baby aspirin. Thank you for answering me. ## Regular Aspirin differs from Baby Aspirin, in that Baby Aspirin is about 25% of the standard 325mg dose. Baby Aspirin generally comes in the 81mg dose with artificial flavoring (and may be in a chewable form). The low 81mg dose can also be purchased for the adult (regular) Aspirin pills as well; but isn't a chewable. It is really a matter of preference when it comes to deciding between the two. I hope this information helps!

is there any diference between loprin and asprin ...since asprin can be applied on face for acne...plz guide me ? ## please tell me the purpose of this tablet "loprin (aspirin) now. ## No, Aspirin should not be applied to your face for acne. The solidified form in tablets is not exactly the same as that which is specially formulated to be used on skin, which is in skin care products. If you wish to try it on your skin, please purchase something that is specifically made to be used in such a manner. Loprin/Aspirin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Low doses are also commonly used for heart health and blood thinning. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am concerned because aspirin is constantly touted for chest pain, especially to be taken before getting to the ER. I am horribly allergic to aspirin, disprin, toradol , Advil and other painkillers except PAnadol. So, what should be taken instead in the event of chest discomfort? ## I take 180mg verapamil daily. My problem is that until recently the color of the pill I was taking was a light coral. Recently the pharmacy where I was getting the pills told me the coral color was no longer available. It was replaced by a blue color. I think I have an allergy to the blue dye as since the change I have had extreme dry and red rash on my lips that will not go away.

What are the long term effects of aspirin? ## my father is taken aspirin 30mg this that can cause bleeding in the nose ## It is possible, since it does thin the blood, however, there is no way for us to say for sure. I suffered a similar problem when I was on narcotic pain management. Aspirin can also increase the risk of gastro-intestinal bleeding. You can read more about it here: My suggestion would be that he consult his doctor, so they can check and see if the nose bleeds are being caused by the Aspirin or something else. Is there anything else I can help you with? ## I am on Plavix and feel this drug induces erectile dysfunction problems. In case it is replaced by ASPRIN will such problems still occuror would be finished.

ASPIRIN Aspirin is termed as the wonder drug in the medical field due to its widespread use in number of diseases. It is also prescribed by the doctors for heart diseases. Aspirin is termed as an effective weapon against heart disease due to its ability to prevent blood clotting. Heart attack occurs when a clot blocks a blood vessel. Blood clotting takes place when the platelets group together. But when Aspirin is consumed, it interferes with this process and prevents the platelets from grouping together by making them less sticky. ## Thanks for the great information. However, as with any medication, there are possible risks associated with the use of Aspirin. It can cause side effects, such as: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach irritation.

I had a blockage in the main artery in my stomach going down into my left leg 2 months ago. I had to have a stent put in and was put on Plavix and Aspirin. After a month I discontinued the Plavix and have continued on Aspirin, the question is that I want to have breast augementation done would it hurt me to have it done knowing that I am taking an 81mg Aspirin? ## Hi Deb, Usually when your considering an operation, the surgeon will give you pre-op instructions as to what is and is not allowed or recommended. From past experiences of friends and family going into surgery, I know that they haven't been able to take any sort of medication (even vitamins) befpre an operation, so personally, I wouldn't suggest taking anything. I hope this advice helps!

what are the differences of taking coumadin or aspirin to prevent blood clots ## Coumadin is a much stronger and more reliably tested prescription medication. You should follow your doctor's advice on which one is best for you. ## Verwon, thank you for your reply. My sister is the one that has the problem and she had asked me to look this question up on my computer for her. She is following her doctor's orders, but she still has questions as she doesn't like how she feels taking the coumadin. ## There are many people who don't like Coumadin, there are other options she could speak to her doctor about, Aspirin and Plavix are two of them.
