A member asked:
My triglycerites is 38 do i need aspirin to thin my blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not enough info: The recommendation to take Aspirin is completely independent of triglyceride level. It's based on the presence of known vascular disease (secondary prevention), or age (>50 for men, 65 for women), and other risk factors such as diabetes (for primary prevention).
