Bayer Aspirin for Pain Relief

Genuine Bayer Aspirin also can provide temporary relief from minor arthritis pain and, when taken under a doctor's care, arthritis inflammation. Additionally, Genuine Bayer Aspirin can be taken by people on an aspirin regimen under a doctor's supervision for recurrent heart attack and stroke prevention. Genuine Bayer Aspirin can even keep you from dying if you take it as directed by a doctor during a heart attack. No other leading brand of pain reliever can do that!

Aspirin is not appropriate for everyone, so be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin or modify an aspirin regimen.

Each Genuine Bayer Aspirin caplet and tablet is coated with Toleraid® Micro-Coating to make it easier to swallow. Genuine Bayer Aspirin is both caffeine-free and sodium-free.
