      Crush it before hand and keep in mixed with a little water. Mix about 4 but only take two.

      take with water but it is a preventative thing. If you are actually having chest pain get to a hospital ASAP

      I don’t think it would be possible to take an aspirin when you are having a heart attack, do you?

      The flow of aspirin is blocked for short time in the flow of blood clot formation.
