Aspirin and It’s Benefits

Aspirin is a great pain reliever for minor aches, fever, and headaches. My dad told me that his doctor prescribed him to take a baby aspirin once daily. He told me that the low dose of aspirin was to help prevent him from having a heart attack, unstable angina, or a stroke. This subject about aspirin got me to thinking if aspirin would be a good thing for me to talk on a daily basis. According to my doctor aspirin can help prevent the risk of heart related problems but may not be right for everyone to take aspirin for heart related problems. I was told that aspirin did not lower the risk of heart attack in women ages 45 to 65. I was also told that aspirin may interact with other medications if I was taking any other medications. So in closing if you think a daily dose of aspirin may help you lower your risk of stroke, heart attack or unstable angina talk to your doctor about the benefits of aspirin.
