Taking aspirin to prevent heart attack may cause more harm.. Now is there was just a drug that had a low dose and would lesson the chance of bleeding....
"Taking aspirin to prevent heart attack may cause more harm than good, task force says"
"Bleeding risks for adults in their 60s and up who haven't had a heart attack or stroke outweigh any potential benefits from aspirin, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force said in its draft guidance.
For the first time, the panel said there may be a small benefit for adults in their 40s who have no bleeding risks. For those in their 50s, the panel softened advice and said evidence of benefit is less clear.
