General & Family Physician,  's  Response
hello,
i can understand your concern.
i would like to know your age. do you have any history of peptic ulcers or bleeding??
80mg a day is not a very high dose.
the most common side effects with aspirin usage are abdominal pain, gastric bleeding, peptic ulcers,nausea, some renal damage.
in fact low dose aspirin has benefits of reducing the risk of myocardial infarction.
i would suggest if you donot have any issues with gastric bleeding or ulcers and the kidney function is intact you can continue taking aspirin as you have been taking.
in case of presence of any these,caution has to be exercised.
hope i have answered your queries.
thanks for choosing HCM.
