Drug introduction

Aspirin is a common pain reliever that is also used to reduce fever and reduce inflammation. Its main function is to block the production of specific substances in the body, thereby reducing pain and inflammation. Aspirin is also used to prevent heart disease and stroke because of its blood-thinning effect. When using aspirin, you should follow your doctor's recommendations and the correct dosage to avoid stomach upset or other adverse reactions. Long-term or heavy use of aspirin may cause serious side effects such as stomach ulcers or bleeding, so it should be used with caution. If you have any adverse reactions, you should stop using it immediately and seek medical advice. When purchasing aspirin, be sure to choose a legal pharmacy or drug sales outlet to avoid purchasing counterfeit or expired products.

Dosage

Directions: Each time an adult takes oral aspirin, they should swallow the tablet with enough water, preferably after a meal to reduce the possibility of stomach upset. While taking aspirin, you should avoid consuming too much food or drinks containing salicylic acid, such as orange juice, to avoid increasing the risk of bleeding. Additionally, you should not engage in activities that require high levels of alertness, such as driving a vehicle or operating machinery, while taking aspirin.

Dosing Guidelines: For adults, the typical starting dose is 325 mg to 650 mg taken every 4 to 6 hours, but should not exceed a total daily dose of 4,000 mg. For children, the dosage should be determined according to age and weight, and it is recommended to use it under the guidance of a physician. Patients who are allergic to aspirin or have gastrointestinal problems should avoid its use or use it under the advice of a physician. In any case, patients should use the medication strictly as recommended by their physician or pharmacist and avoid adjusting the dosage on their own.

side effect

Taking aspirin may cause stomach upset such as stomach pain, stomach ulcers, or stomach bleeding. Some people may experience allergic reactions such as skin redness and swelling, difficulty breathing, or dizziness. Long-term, heavy use of aspirin may cause bleeding problems such as nosebleeds, bleeding gums, or black stools. In addition, aspirin may interact with other medications, increasing the risk of side effects. If you have any discomfort or concerns, you should stop using it immediately and consult a doctor.
