Stomach hurts after taking it on most nights.. Could it be the coating? I've had an endoscopy done with no issues so I doubt it's an ulcer.. anyone recommend a certain brand?
How much you taking?
81mg, I was using bayer brand before now I got the walgreens chewables
Is the pain severe? Any vomiting?
Could be an acidity issue. Try a different brand, maybe a tab instead of chewable. I've used bayer tabs without issue. If it persists it's in your best interest to see a doc in case you've developed some bleeding, which is rare but better be safe.
switch to the enteric low dose aspirin. problem solved.
Some people cant tolerate aspirin. You may be one.Quote:

this is out there, but you could cap the baby aspirin where it will digest further down the digestive trac and sparing your stomach some stress?
Thats exactly what an enteric coating does TR..so its not out there at all. Just might be easier to go buy enteric low dose aspirin ;)Quote:

Why are you taking aspirin in the first place?

Sorry it took awhile to respond..
I'm taking it because I had an abnormal EKG result with my GP once and she said it wouldn't hurt to take a baby aspirin for maintenance purposes until I saw my cardiologist..
Did my stress test and everything came back fine, but I continued to take it for heart health. I'm going to try an enteric dose and see how that goes.. thanks all!
