Fasprin, a new form of low-dose aspirin that quickly dissolves on the tongue and is absorbed by blood vessels lining the mouth, is being promoted for its heart-health benefits for adults.
Studies show that aspirin makes blood cells less sticky and helps prevent blood clots that can cause heart attacks and strokes. The 81-milligram aspirin dissolves in your mouth, not in your stomach, so it enters the blood stream in three to five minutes, instead of the usual 20 to 30 minutes. It requires no water and does not irritate the stomach lining. It also has a pleasant citrus taste.
Suggested retail price is $5.99 for 30 tablets, a one-month supply.
