From WebMD comes an article titled, "Is aspirin safe for kids?"

According to the article, experts say "you should never give any kind of aspirin - even baby aspirin - to kids." The article goes on to say that, "while so-called 'baby aspirin' is still available in stores, doctors today recommend it for adult use only."

But is aspirin safe for adults?

The medically-minded experts suggest that parents should give acetaminophen and/or ibuprofen instead of aspirin, to children.

In the same article, it is then stated that, "of course, either drug can cause potentially serious problems if given more frequently or in higher doses than recommended."

The article goes on to state that, "when it comes to medicine, more is definitely not better."
