Re: Bufferin Question

The only over the counter asprin product that I would give my dog is Ascriptin. She got 2000 mg/day. She was 80-85 pounds. My vet told me to give her the adult dosage. Ascriptin is aspirin with Maalox. My vet told me that the other buffering agents actually prevent the aspirin from being absorbed due to the dog's short GI track.
