Not at the same time: The use of Aspirin as a method to avoid deep vein thrombosis(dvt's) on long international flights should not be swalowed at the same time as the oral contraceptive pill. Also, wear calf support hose/stockings, walk around the airplane every 4 hours, and do seat exercises.

Asa: Ok so you use birth control. This is okay. Why would need to take Aspirin in order to fly?
