Aspirins help with heart attacks, but which type is better?

Science - Health



Based on analysis of the data, they found that chewable aspirin was absorbed into the body much more than regular aspirin. It had the greatest and fastest absorption rate, when compared to the regular aspirin.

Plus, the researchers discovered that it did not matter if the chewable aspirin was chewed first or swallowed whole. It was more effective either way ingested.

The Nordt team suggest that such information could be very helpful to improve the condition of people just after having a heart attack.

The conclusions of this study were presented on May 15, 2009, at the 2009 annual meeting (May 14-17, 2009) of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM), which was held in New Orleans, Louisiana. The presentation was called “Comparison Of Three Aspirin Formulations.”

The paper summarizing their research was published in the April 2009 issue of the journal Academic Emergency Medicine, which is a journal of the SAEM.
