Yes, baby asprin is an NSAID. If your band doctor says no NSAIDS, and your regular Dr. wants you taking them, you should check with your band doctor. :myscared:

Losing weight, getting healthy and getting plenty of cardiovascular exercise is probably a safer way to prevent heart disease!

I'm in the same position you are. I take 1 325 mg asprin a day. I had a hole in my heart which they repaired with a cardioseal implant and I was on coumidin for about 5 years. A year after my surgery showed to be successful they took me off of coumidin due to the dangers and put me on asprin. Now here I am??

Due to family history, my PCP put me on aspirin therapy 3 years ago. I spoke to my band Dr. about it, and he said since I take 1 baby aspirin a day, just to be sure to take it with food, and I'd be fine.

Talk to your Dr. often times there are solutions!!
