The recommended aspirin dosage per day can vary depending on the individual and the specific medical condition being treated. According to the American Heart Association (AHA) [1], aspirin can be used to help reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in patients who have already had one of these events. For those individuals, the AHA recommends a dosage of 75-100 milligrams (mg) once a day, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional.

For individuals who have not had a heart attack or stroke, but are at high risk for these events, the AHA states that aspirin therapy should be discussed with a healthcare provider to determine the potential benefits and risks.

It is important to note that aspirin therapy is not appropriate for everyone, and can have serious side effects, such as increased risk of bleeding. Therefore, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before starting aspirin therapy.

In addition, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed it, as taking too much aspirin can lead to harmful side effects.
