I have just recently purchased a ASPOD pod, trying to purchase 300mg soluble aspirin from the chemist I was told that they could not supply 300mg aspirin without a doctors prescription, can you inform me where I can purchase this size of tablet.
Regards
RF

Hi Roger,
Confusing I know, some doctors, pharmacists and academics routinely use the word ‘soluble’ aspirin, in this context the word ‘dispersible’ has the same meaning. In the UK dispersible aspirin 300mg which is what you need for your Aspod is readily available from all pharmacies.
If we can help further please contact us.

IMPORTANT NOTE: IF YOU NEED TO TAKE AN EMERGENCY DOSE OF ASPIRIN YOU MUST DIAL 999 FOR AN AMBULANCE FIRST – AND THEN IMMEDIATELY CHEW AND SWALLOW ONE 300mg SOLUBLE ASPIRIN. If in doubt speak to your Doctor.
