The aspirin I use is Bayer's Micro Particle Advanced Extra Strength, 500mg per coated tablet. It used to be available in a bottle but that has disappeared & now I use the sealed in foil packets.

The aspirin I use is Bayer's Micro Particle Advanced Extra Strength, 500mg per coated tablet. It used to be available in a bottle but that has disappeared & now I use the sealed in foil packets. I have various joint problems, most of which are intermittent even without meds, but recent shoulder pain caused me to try just a single tablet of this aspirin, no more than 2-3 daily. Then I switched to Tylenol, 2 tablets twice daily. Tylenol seems to encourage edema of my legs, so I switched back to the aspirin, but 2 tablets at a time. Finally, this works well for me, although I still have slight discomfort from time to time. I don't like taking meds, but of course do when necessary, but have a real aversion to risking the side effects of all of them. I take levothyroxine, 112 mcg (or mg?) and 12.5 mg of hydrochlorothiazide. That's it. I'm an 81 year old female.Read More Read Less
