6 aspirins: Why are you taking so many aspirins (I presume six a day), and why are you taking an antibiotic? If you have been told by your doctor to take 6 antibiotics a day, please find another doctor. If a doctor has not told you to take six a day , she/he is correct.

6 Aspirins: Taking 6 aspirin tablets at one time is not good for a few reasons. It can thin your blood causing you to bleed easier. It can cause significant irritation to the lining of the stomach and can lead to bleeding and ulcers. It can cause strain on the kidneys and can lead to metabolic disturbances if taken in excess.Consult your physician before taking more than the recommended dosage of any medicine
