Low Dose Aspirin

Описание: I take a daily low-dose aspirin (81mg) because I have a family history of heart attack and stroke.
This is a bit controversial in the medical literature, and some physicians find that the risks of bleeding and other complications are higher than the benefits here.
Several studies have shown that low-dose aspirin can decrease the risk of colorectal cancer.
To make this more confusing, a June 2023 publication in the Annals of Internal Medicine concludes that a daily low-dose aspirin may increase the risk of anemia by 20% in older adults via occult blood and a decrease in ferritin.
So this topic is obviously very confusing, and it turns out that aspirin has benefits for some people, but may be contraindicated in others.
I think that this is a very important topic that you should discuss with your primary care doctor to see if low-dose aspirin can be beneficial for your long-term health.
