question 16

Multiple Choice

Scenario 5-2
Bayer Women's Aspirin Plus Calcium pitches protection against two threats to women's health: heart disease (the leading cause of death for women) and osteoporosis (the fragile bone disease that targets four times as many women as men) . The weapon against heart disease is 81 mg of aspirin; to target osteoporosis, the pill packs 300 milligrams of calcium.
It's the aspirin that could pose a problem for people who don't need it, who use it without consulting a doctor or who are at elevated risk of complications or side effects from it.
Recommendations issued by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force advise low-dose aspirin therapy for, among other groups, post-menopausal women and those who smoke or have diabetes, elevated blood cholesterol levels or high blood pressure.
