It’s been said
that if aspirin came out now, the FDA would not approve it, and they’re
probably right. There are so many side effects and problems associated with
aspirin. It’s difficult to prescribe, and yet, it’s over-the-counter. And
here’s the point, aspirin has many protective things that it does, but it also
can lead to problems, such as gastrointestinal bleeding. In young people, it
can cause Reye’s Syndrome. In other people, we have issues with rebound
headaches, because people take too much of it. Remember, aspirin is good, but
it needs to be used judiciously.
