Aspirin and kidney damage
Hello doctor. I want to know if aspirin will reduce kidney function if I take it once in a while like once in 2 months? I have used it but only once in a while. Like one tablet in 2-3 months. That's it. I'm worried that it will harm my kidneys.

Aspirin is known to cause kidney dysfunction. In your case number of pills taken by you is very low. One pill in one month won't cause kidney dysfunction. Experimental studies have not shown kidney dysfunction at these doses. Even More than 100 pills per year are associated with low probability.
