Acetylsalicylic acid, or ASA, the active ingredient in ASPIRIN® was launched on the German market under the trademark ASPIRIN® in 1899.
Today, ASPIRIN® is a registered trademark of Bayer AG in Germany and in more than 80 other countries.
With its history, ASPIRIN® has earned the trust of citizens and medical communities worldwide.
ASPIRIN®'s mechanism of action has been thoroughly documented and described over the years.
Pain Management

ASPIRIN®, as an over-the-counter medication, is indicated for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains of arthritis. ASPIRIN® relieves the burning pain of arthritis inflammation right at the site.
Doctors may recommend ASPIRIN® for other types of pain management. Talk to your doctor to determine if ASPIRIN® is right for you.
Long Term Preventative Therapy
Coated ASPIRIN® Daily Low Dose is doctor recommended for daily therapy.
Coated ASPIRIN® Daily Low Dose contains a special formulation of ASA. Other ingredients such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen that are meant to relieve pain do not have the same action as Coated ASPIRIN® Daily Low Dose.
