The Doctor Is In Podcast - A podcast by Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin

Dr. Martin has a love/hate relationship with aspirin! He loves it for acute conditions like if someone is having a stroke, but not for long-term use. Aspirin was once recommended by doctors to reduce strokes as it's an anti-clotting medication. But over the last 20 years, it’s been discovered that the benefits of aspirin are far outweighed by the risk of taking aspirin. Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn why taking aspirin daily may cause more harm than good!
