Not likely to affect much.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Ecosprin 75 is a low dose aspirin. Taking 28 tablets are not likely to cause a liver toxicity in a healthy female. it can cause gastric acidity mild gastric bleeding or appearance of petechial spots on different parts of the body. it is best to consult a physician for an examination and get a gastric lavage done to minimize the side effects if she has taken the tablets recently.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
