Kirkland Low Dose Aspirin

Aspirin Regimen. Pain Reliever. This is a generic enteric-coated aspirin, meaning the manufacturer placed a coating on the tablet that prevents it from being digested in the stomach. The reason for this coating is that aspirin causes mild stomach bleeding in the stomach each time it is ingested. Once the tablet gets into the small intestine, it is digested and the aspirin is taken into the bloodstream.

Aspirin is a wonder-drug, the very first analgesic/anti-inflammatory medication to hit the market over 100 years ago. It is for mild to moderate pain and treats many different conditions such as arthritis, bone inflammation, joint pain, and even reduces fever. Aspirin causes blood platelets to not adhere to each other, thus it “thins” the blood and prevents blood clots from forming. Aspirin is thus used in emergency treatment of heart attacks and strokes. Some folks take a “baby” aspirin (81-160 mgs) each day to prevent blood clots from forming.

Aspirin is actually acetyl-salicylic acid. Manufacturers alter the structure of aspirin slightly to grant it different properties in terms of its digestion, to make digestion easier. Some buffer it with antacids while others coat the tablet with a coating that prevents its digestion in the stomach (like Ecotrin). Regular aspirin, without any buffering or coatings is tolerated by most people, but some cannot take it without severe stomach upset. For these folks, the buffered form is a god-send.
