Side effects like ulcers or bleeding in the stomach or intestine are more likely in elderly people and those who've had peptic ulcers in the past. The risk can also be increased by taking certain other medicines.

If your doctor thinks you are at high risk of side effects on the gut you will be prescribed an extra medicine to help protect your gut.

Other possible aspirin side effects include:

• Increased time taken to stop bleeding or other bleeding problems (see below).
• Sensation of ringing, or other noise in the ears (tinnitus).
