A member asked:
I had to stop my aspirin for surgery on tuesday. is there such thing as aspirin withdrawl? because i have been constipated since i stopped.

Not perfect: Aspirin is not addicting nor can cause physical or physiologic dependence. Withdrawals anyway would cause more diarrhea than constipation due to hyperactivity. Eat more fibers. I don't see calcium channel blockers for hypertension in your medicines which can cause constipation.
