Go before bed. Most heart problems manifest upon waking up

I take the 81mg every morning. Just seeing if I should up the mg or not.

Agree, it’s preferable unless you have GERD or acid reflux. In which case take in morning.

In the US, adult aspirin is 325 mg. Baby aspirin is one-quarter of that, 81 mg. Some of these numbers are either full of shit or from countries where they really love their patients to come in to the ER with GI bleeds. (Hint: they're all full of shit.)

If you have no history of significant cardiac events (heart attack, cardiac arrest), you run more risk of starting an aspirin regimen than doing nothing. The research never supported this practice, and within the last twenty years the research has shown that it's killed more people than it's saved.

Just say no. (Unless you've had a heart attack, then take one 81 mg aspirin with food once per day.)
