No, actually, it's good for you. Also, when my neighbor went into the ER with chest pains, they gave her 4 childrens chewable aspirins right away. Aspirin thins your blood, and helps to keep you from having a heart attack. Just use caution, because some people are allergic to aspirin. If you aren't allergic, then it's a good thing. \n\nAlso, when I broke my ankle and was in a cast, my doctor insisted that I take an aspirin every day to keep from getting blood clots where the cast was. Aspirin is good for many things...not just for headaches anymore!

I can't imagine it would be "dangerous" but if you are on chemical blood thinners (coumadin) & ate loads of garlic it might have an affect on your blood? Really not too sure about that one so you should ask your doc or pharmacist if you take that kind of medicine. If you DON'T take meds, then NO, I'd say it wasn't "dangerous" to consume that much. You might have trouble finding somebody to snuggle up with you for kisses, tho!!! Garlic is good when roasted with olive oil out on the grill!!! Enjoy it!!! (you might want to move to Gilroy, CA - home of the Garlic Festival!!)

Association however strong, does not imply causation. There is no significant evidence that Reye's syndrome is caused by the use of aspirin. Here is a list that claims that Reye's syndrome could not be associated with aspirin usage:\n1. Reye's syndrome did not exist before 1950- it suddenly appeared in the 1950s but aspirin had been used since 1899; paracetamol (acetaminophen) was discovered in 1955.\n2. Reye himself concluded that aspirin was not a cause of the syndrome.\n3. Aspirin ingestion occurred in patients with viral illnesses who did not develop Reye's syndrome.\n4. Uncertainty about the timing of the onset of the syndrome- whether the data are anaylysed with protracted vomiting or the onset of altered mental status as the starting point is material to whether or not an association with phenothiazines is found. \n5. International differences in patterns of the disease and association with aspirin.\n6. Reye's syndrome was disappearing before label warnings were introduced in 1986.\n7. Some cases of Reye's may have had undiagnosed inborn errors of metabolism.\n\nOther studies have also concluded that "an aspirin a day, keeps the doctor away." With these catchy phrases and hidden side effects that people may not be aware of, people have started taking daily dosages of aspirin to prevent atherosclerosis. This maybe true for the populatoin in general, but not specifically for the elders. 65 and older users of aspirin have shown little or no benefits, on the other hand many side effects arised.\n\nBleeding and hemmoraging are major problems for the elderly population which uses aspirin, therefore being suseptible to adverse effects of the drug is on person to person bases. If no bleeding, allergic reactions, or other side effects arise than aspirin is great for headache and pain relief and may even prevent strokes or heart attacks. Hopefully you found this useful and not baised... I am niether trying to promote the drug or telling you to avoid it... Just informing my fellow "Yahoo Answerer". GL

There are not good and bad medicines, dear.\nThere is good use and bad use of medicines. \nRead carefully the instructions (including the containdications and side effects) and if you need to take it, you can do it. Just don't overdo it! Taken occasionally for headaches or a common flu or for another minor symptom, it  will not harm you, if you are a healthy individual. \nJust take care if you have high blood pressure, peptic ulcer or any kind of problems with your stomach or if you are taking any other medicines contemporaneously. In that case, you have to consult your doctor.\n\nIf you are taking it as a pain killer, that is on a frequent basis, ask your pharmacist or your doctor about it. There are many other methods, having less side effects, that alternative medicine can offer to you.\n\nKaterina

Aspirin to Prevent Blood Clots\nAbout one in four heart attacks and strokes may be prevented by aspirin.\n\nA daily low dose of aspirin lowers the risk of having a heart attack or stroke if you have:\n\n    * angina.\n    * a previous heart attack (myocardial infarction).\n    * peripheral vascular disease.\n    * a previous stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).\n    * certain other heart and blood vessel conditions.\n\nThe usual dose is 75 mg. This is a lot less than the dose for pain relief. If you need to take painkillers (eg for headaches) it is best to take alternative painkillers such as paracetamol

Nothing, unless you take more than the recommended daily allowance or do it regularly. If you take painkillers regularly you'll end up with a headache when you don't take them, due to withdrawal effects.

i think a normal person goes at least once a day or every other day.  Don't think its much more than that.  If it is, you should probably be seeing a doc.

a Positive crp test means that you are at risk to have a heart attack, at some point in your life.\n\nCRP = C-reactive Protein Test\n\nas for taking the aspirin, I would encourage you to discuss that with your doctor, he/she will probably reccomend some other tests for you do, echocardiogram, treadmill stress test, ekg's, etc, he/she will probably also reccomend that you take 1 81mg aspirin tablet a day, because aspirin thins your blood, and if you have coronary artery blockage, it helps the bllod to get through easier.

It depends on the medication mostly. But yes many medications can cause bleeding on their own, and the chances of this are increased if you take it along with other medications.\n\nNSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs) have this as a side effect. this is why many people who take aspirin on a daily basis are advised to take the aspirin ec, which is entericoated and causes the  medication to be released inthe intestinal tract rather than the stomach.\n\nOther meds inthe NSAID category are ibuprofen (advil and motrin), and naproxen sodium (aleve). These should not be taken together.\n\nIf you take aspirin as a maintenance drug and need a pain reliever, it would be wise to ask your doctor for specific instruction but mostly they recommend tylenol (acetometaphen) since it is not an NSAID and doesn't upset the stomach as much.\n\nAny time an NSAID is taken, drink milk or take it after eating something.

Actually masterbation and sex produces endorphines, your bodies own protective mechanism for pain etc... comes about with excercise as well. So, theoretically, I would have to say it is not unhealthy to do it once a day.\nMike RN

81 mg aspirin are commonly prescribed for heart patients as a daily medication.  The law of supply and demand drives the price up...

Aspirin is generally used as a painkiller although recent studies have suggested a use as a method of controlling blood pressure

anti-inflammatory medicine can be very dangerous if not taken under medical supervision and for long periods of time. aspirin for example can attack the stomach and can even cause an ulcer in people with sensitive stomach, even taken in the recommended dosage.\n  my recommendation is to talk with your doctor or pharmacist and see what they say about it
