A member asked:
In the event of a heart attack, what's the best dosage and form of aspirin that someone could take immediately, before they go to the hospital?
6 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
4 x 81 mg chewable: Ems and er staff give patients with heart attack four 'baby' chewable Aspirin (81mg) to chew and swallow. A 'regular' 325mg Aspirin will work as long also, as long as it is chewed and swallowed.
