Aspirin is used as an analgesic for rapid relief of minor to moderate aches and pains, as an antipyretic to reduce fever, and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Glycine is an organic compound, it improves the gastric absorption of acetylsalicylic acid. Aspirin is also used long-term, at low doses, to help prevent heart attacks, strokes, and blood clot formation in people at high risk for developing blood clots. It has also been established, that low doses of aspirin may be given immediately after a heart attack to reduce the risk of another heart attack and stroke.

Aspirin is used for the treatment of inflammation, fever, and pain that results from many forms of arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, ankylosing spondylitis, Reiter's syndrome, and osteoarthritis, as well as for soft tissue injuries, such as tendinitis and bursitis. Aspirin also is used for rapid relief of mild to moderate pain and fever in other inflammatory conditions.

Aspirin should be taken with food.
Usual doses for mild to moderate pain are 325 mg every 4 hours
Doses for rheumatoid arthritis include 325 mg every 4-6 hours
Heart attacks are prevented with 75, 150 or 325 mg daily. 

Aspirin is a nonsteroidal anti inflammatory drug (NSAID) effective in treating fever, pain, and inflammation in the body. It also prevents blood clots (i.e., is antithrombotic). As a group, NSAIDs are non-narcotic relievers of mild to moderate pain of many causes, including headaches, injury, menstrual cramps, arthritis, and other musculoskeletal conditions. They all work by reducing the levels of prostaglandins, chemicals that are released when there is inflammation and that cause pain and fever. NSAIDs block the enzyme that makes prostaglandins (cyclooxygenase), resulting in lower concentrations of prostaglandins. As a consequence, inflammation, pain, and fever are reduced. Inhibition of prostaglandins also reduces the function of platelets and the ability of blood to clot. Generic Aspirin inhibits the function of platelets in a manner that is different from other NSAIDs, and its antithrombotic effects last longer than other NSAIDs. Thus, Aspirin is used for preventing heart attacks and strokes.
