Answer:

81mg and enteric coated

Explanation:

Dose 325 mg aspirin is used to treat inflammation and pain. But to subside the heart attack patient needs enteric coated 81 mg aspirin to avoid platelet aggregation. With low dose of aspirin 81 mg there are evidence to show reduced platelet aggregation which reduce chances of hearts attack.

Enteric coated because aspirin is non selective NSAID and may block the cox 1 in the stomach which result in reduced stomach protective lining which result in gastric ulceration and bleeding. To avoid its dissolution in Acidic media (of stomach) the aspirin is enteric coated so that it may be disintegrated and dissolved in small intestine.

I hope it may help. Kindly mark it branliest if the answer is satisfactory. Thanking you in anticipation.
