A 45-year-old member asked:
Is it ok to swallow baby aspirin instead of chewing it?
1 doctor answer • 2 doctors weighed in
Dr. Bennett Werner answered
Cardiology 44 years experience
Yes: Yes. It works faster when chewed but, if you're not in a hurry, swallowing is fine. (if you're taking it everyday, you have an Aspirin effect already so there's no hurry, but when people are having chest pain and not on Aspirin or their status isn't known, chewing gets it into their system faster).

A 28-year-old male asked:
Should everyone over 50 take a baby aspirin?

Dr. Kenneth Cheng answered
Family Medicine 31 years experience
No: Aspirin taken daily can be very beneficial in preventing heart attacks and strokes. However, not everyone should be on Aspirin therapy as there are medical conditions (ulcers, drug allergies, bleeding disorders, etc.) that could worsen with daily Aspirin use. In addition, there could be interactions with other medications. Discuss with your doctor before starting any Aspirin therapy.

Can a baby use aspirin?

Dr. James Ferguson answered
Pediatrics 46 years experience
No: We have not used Aspirin or Aspirin like products in kids under age 16 for decades after it was tied to a rare cause of liver failure/death. The only exceptions are treating kids with arthritis, kawasaki disease or rheumatic fever. The "baby aspirin" as a low dose has resurfaced & is used with adults to help prevent heart attacks.
