To reduce this risk, the smallest effective dose should be used over the shortest possible duration of therapy. Contact your doctor if you have stomach pain and suspect it is related to taking the medicine.

In individual cases, severe skin reactions may occur. If you get a generalized flush of skin associated with pustules and fever, stop taking Aspirin Complex and contact your doctor immediately. See the section «What side effects can Aspirin Complex have?».

Elderly patients may be more sensitive to the medicine than younger adults. It is particularly important that elderly patients report any side effects to their doctor immediately.

There may be an increased tendency to bleed, especially during and after surgical interventions (including minor interventions such as tooth extraction). The doctor or dentist must be asked or informed about the intake before surgical interventions.

Serious skin reactions have been reported in association with treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The highest risk of such reactions appears to be at the beginning of therapy.
