ASPIRIN MAY CUT BREAST CANCER RISK
We already know that a low-dose (81-milligram) aspirin tablet is associated
with a number of health benefits, including lowering heart attack risk. Now,
researchers have also found that taking low-dose aspirin three times per
week may lower women’s risk of developing breast cancer by up to 20%.
This finding is based on an analysis of data of 57,164 women between the
years 2005 and 2013. Overall, women who reported using low-dose aspirin
at least three times per week were 16% less likely to develop breast cancer
than those who used aspirin less frequently. When looking at breast cancer
subtypes, the risk of developing HR positive/HER2-negative breast cancer
was 20% lower. It is thought that aspirin’s anti-inflammatory effects may be
responsible.
Like any over-the- counter-medication, it’s important not to abuse aspirin
and to talk to your doctor about the safety of taking aspirin for other ailments
besides the conventional headache. Depending on what other prescription or
OTC drugs you’re taking, aspirin may be contraindicated in your particular
case. For more information, please call or visit VILLAGE PHARMACY in the
Colonial Shopping Center (781-334-3133).
HINT: “HR” status refers to whether or not the breast cancer cells contain
receptors for the hormones estrogen or progesterone, while “HER2” status is
whether or not cancer cells contain too many HER2 receptors, which can fuel
breast cancer growth.
