Recent studies recommend daily use of 81mg uncoated instead of coated. Why can I buy uncoated 325mg but not 81mg? Is the only solution to buy the 325's and cut them up?
Where can I buy uncoated, nonchewable 81mg aspirin?

I have equate 81 mg uncoated aspirin. You have to read labels. I got it at walmart There is no reason you can't swallow it if you don't want to chew it, but if you're taking it at the sign of a heart attack you want the chewable because it absorbs faster if chewed.
