National Trends in Aspirin Use and Expenditures in the United States: Analysis of The Medical Expenditure Panel Survey 2000–2021
Total and low-dose (81 mg) ASA use has increased, while high-dose (325 mg) ASA has declined. ASA use for primary prevention has risen among adults aged 50-69 years, and patients ≥ 70 years continue to use ASA without known ASCVD. Further studies are needed to understand the implications of increased ASA use, especially among those without ASCVD.
