Core Tip	Low dose aspirin is widely used to prevent cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarcts and strokes; however, this therapy significantly increases the risk of gastrointestinal injury and induces ulceration and serious bleeding especially in aging individuals. This risk is further increased in patients using low dose aspirin concurrently with other antiplatelet agents, other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and/or alcohol, or in patients with Helicobacter pylori infection.
