What dosage range is recommended for aspirin?

  1. 25-50 mg

  2. 81-162 mg

  3. 200-300 mg

  4. 400-500 mg

The correct answer is: 81-162 mg

The correct answer is B: 81-162 mg. This dosage range is typically recommended for aspirin when used for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties. It is a commonly utilized dosage for conditions such as pain relief, reducing inflammation, and lowering fever. Option A (25-50 mg) is too low of a dosage to have therapeutic effects, while options C (200-300 mg) and D (400-500 mg) exceed the recommended range for aspirin dosing and can increase the risk of adverse effects such as gastrointestinal bleeding.
