82. Aspirin is also an anti-inflammatory drug
Aspirin has the advantage that it is actually cheaper than generic Naproxen. I have a hunch that naproxen is more effective as an anti-inflammatory drug. I vaguely recall that from a conversation with a physician. I know that naproxen can cure a headache in 10 minutes, which is why I keep some around.

I had stayed away from aspirin because of the acid-stomach problems. I never had the acid-stomach problems, I was just being cautious. I am aware of aspirin's blood-thinning properties, but I don't know why that is advantageous. I never looked into that either.
