Aspirin is the common name for the analgesic (painkiller) acetylsalicylic acid. It is used to treat mild pain and can reduce the effects of a fever. It also prevents blood clotting,and this can help prevent heart attacks and strokes. Also seen are several smaller homeopathy pills. Homeopathy is a system of medicine in which very small doses are taken of drugs which,in large doses,produce the same symptoms as those from which the patient is suffering.
