Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory✓ FDA-verified
View full FDA label ↗Aspirin Enteric Coated is a medication used for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains, but it won't provide quick relief for headaches or other symptoms that need immediate attention. It works by reducing inflammation and pain in the body. Adults and children aged 12 and over should take 4 to 8 tablets every 4 hours, but they should not exceed 48 tablets in a day unless directed by a doctor. A key warning is that children and teenagers recovering from chickenpox or flu-like symptoms should not use this medication due to the risk of Reye's syndrome, a serious illness. If you are taking blood thinners, like warfarin, it's important to consult a doctor before using this medication.
