Aspirin is used to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain from conditions such as muscle aches, toothaches, common cold, and headaches. It may also be used to reduce pain and swelling in conditions such as arthritis. Aspirin is known as a salicylate and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
Aspirin helps prevent heart attacks by stopping the formation of clots that block blood flow to the heart. Aspirin is used to prevent a first heart attack in people with heart disease risk factors, such as diabetes and high cholesterol.
Low-dose aspirin is the most common dose used to prevent a heart attack or a stroke.
Little did we know that aspirin can also help reverse tooth decay.
