Aspirin use besides orally

Corngold

Goodys aspirin is a powder you dissolve in water. I think it also has acetaminophen and caffeine though.
Bufferin contains calcium carbonate and a few antacids intended to ease stomach pain.
I've taken Bufferin a bit, but it seems weaker. I prefer the cheap off-brand aspirin that has additives Peaters hate, though I think it's insignificant. BC aspirin also contains some caffeine and a few additives but is dissolvable.

I was always worried about getting stomach pain but I've so far had zero issues taking aspirin. It's definitely been a life saver even before finding Peat. I don't think you want to get too creative with application... of course, you could always find a willow tree and chew on the bark.

@LucyJ aspirin can makentbe gut kore resilient after developing tolerance, maybe you could taper up slowly with the powder

@LucyJ You might wish to experiment with Mineral Salicylate compounds. One OTS is Doan's pills / magnesium salicylate, another is Copper Salicylate if you can find it or make it.

In addition, you may find the use of phosphatidyl choline to be protective per this study:

"With this information in hand, we reasoned that this ability of aspirin and other NSAIDs to topically injure the mucosa may be prevented if the drug was chemically pre-associated with synthetic or organic (soybean) PC. Accordingly, preclinical studies on experimental animals50-55 and clinical studies11,12 have demonstrated a remarkable reduction in the ability of a number of NSAIDs to induce GI ulceration and bleeding when the NSAIDs were chemically associated with PC before intragastric administration."

@sneedful I keep reading this and perhaps I’ve gone too fast but the anxiety I get (physiological ) when my upper gi is irritated has made this hard. Perhaps I should try baby aspirin once a week and see how that goes, thank you

@Corngold thanks for this info. I just had a look, seems hard to get bufferin where I am and a few nasty ingredient but figure I could make my own version with quick eze and small dose aspirin and see if that helps

@LucyJ thats fair enough, maybe it isnt for you at this time. what i can say is that i dont think ive ever noticed doses of up to 1.2g at a time dissolved in baking soda and hot water give me gut problems. i tapered up from much smaller doses. there is a paper showing aspirin tolerance changes composition of amino acids in gut mucus

@LucyJ Ray wrote about putting it your bath water. I’ve soaked my feet in aspirin water. I would think the high er concentration would allow more to be absorbed.

jens

have you combined it with K2?

16charactersitis

@jens I have taken em together or back to back topically and orally but not as a soak. The K would be wasted in water coz it needs to be in oil or pure alcohol to be absorbed.

I had a terrible colitis flare up from aspirin. Then someone advised me to buy the powdered form and put it into a smoothie. That's what I do now, and I have no more symptoms.

Haidut makes a topic spray that has aspirin in it and caffeine and maybe niacinamide I believe. Ok I looked it up. Idealabs
Called Solban.
Niacinamide / Nicotinamide - 40 mg
Caffeine - 10 mg
Salicylic acid - 10 mg
Succinic acid - 10 mg

It’s in like a mist spray bottle.
