Prescribed low-dose aspirin

Low-dose aspirin may be prescribed for specific pregnancy indications, but it is not a supplement to start, stop or adjust from a generic recommendation.

Direct guidance

What to know or do

Confirm the exact tablet, dose, start and stop plan, missed-dose advice and interactions with the prescribing clinician or pharmacist. Ordinary pain-relief aspirin is a different use.

What changes the answer

  • The exact active ingredient, strength, dose, route and formulation
  • Why you use it, how often, and the pregnancy week or exposure date
  • Other prescriptions, non-prescription products, supplements and health conditions

When to get individual help

Check the exact item or situation with a doctor, midwife, pharmacist or relevant clinician; the name of a broad category is not enough for a personal decision.
