An Underappreciated Risk of an Aspirin a Day. By Neena Abraham, M.D. If your physician has suggested you take aspirin to reduce your risk of heart disease, it is important to remember that even small doses of daily aspirin â including âbaby aspirin,â at a dose of 81 milligrams daily â can increase your risk of ulcers and bleeding.
Some were taking a regular low dose of aspirin â in the range of 75 to 160 milligrams â and others were not. A typical baby aspirin sold at pharmacies in the United States contains 80 milligrams of the drug, compared to 325 milligrams for a regular aspirin. After five years, women who had been taking a daily low-dose of aspirin scored higher on cognitive tests then their peers who werenât taking aspirin.
