I was interested to hear recently that research now indicares that Aspirin is no longer to be regarded as the great preventative medicine for heart attacks and strokes in the elderly that ot once was. Given that Aspirin has been prescribed to all and sundry over the past few years as a preventitive and given that Aspirin is notorious for causing internal bleeding and gastric disturbancws, I wonder how long it will be before some of those affected begin to seek compensation for the consequences of adverse reactions to the drug.
