Has anyone else been prescribed these for peri menopausal symptoms?

My gp recommended 900mg asprin (3 tablets) & a high dose daily of vitamin b2.

Sorry should have said as I turned down any prescribed drug.

Bit confused. Your GP said take that amount of aspirin- what, in a single dose?
What about the effects on your stomach?

I don't understand your comment about turning down prescribed drugs. Do you not take any drugs for some reason?

Yes, gp recommended 900mg aspirin in one dose, not to be repeated in 24 hours, and obviously only when a headache starts.
Apologies, I did not mean to be vague. I do not take the prescribed drug you mentioned, and do not know if it is compatible with aspirin. However the aspirin was an alternative suggestion to my gp prescribing a specific hormonal headache drug. Due to a few gynae problems I have been put into a chemical menopause, which has triggered more headaches. Certainly not against prescribed medicines. However I did not want to take anything else which may cause further side effects. It's just my personal preference. The vitamin B2 supplements have helped & I now only get a headache every few weeks, rather than nearly every day.
