Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I was in my local pharmacy this past week getting a new supply of enteric coated aspirin and saw that in addition to the 325mg and 81mg stuff it now comes in 500mg. Has anyone used it yet? About a year ago, my allergist consulted with Dr. Simon at Scripps and thought I should increase to 975mg a day. To be honest, I never got around to going up to that dosage. However, there are times I think I should. After I saw the 500mg ecotrin, I thought this would be an easy way to do it - 500mg in the morning and 500mg at night. Any thoughts? - PS: When I left Scripps, I was doing a total of 1300mg daily. I'm now doing 1/2 of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 When you go up in daily dosage, do you do it gradually or simply double it, as we did in the desens?
