Taking 325mg aspirin for a few years, have a history of a-fib, but no history of heart attack what is the safest way to switch to low dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple: Make sure the doctor who initiated you on a full dose Aspirin, is alright with you changing the dose. The dose change is simple, just initiate baby aspirin the next day.
