Dougie has hurt herself again!

I’d go with smaller dose or you’ll have to cut the 300 mg up

I dont have any to hand but I could get some, would this type be okay? What dosage is best?

Can you buy low dose aspirin? They are 83mg give or take 1g. Your little girl will likely benefit from half a low dose aspirin. About 40mg up to x4 daily.

Maybe baby aspirin? Or the infant drops?

I could, I cant find much online, a lot have added caffeine or other things put in, I never use aspirin so I dont really know what is what. I did however find some in our medical box, but theyre the higher dose ones, 300mg again. I could try to cut them up if they would work, or just get baby aspirin?
She is doing a little better so far, she is limping on it pretty bad inbetween lying down, but isnt hanging it in the air anymore or falling down, so I do feel sure its a sprain.

If you cut 300mg into 4ths that would work. Pop it inside a piece of tomato or something else she likes real well.

okay, just to make sure, this is the kind, should be okay? I'll give her some when I get home, she loves grapes and blueberries, I'm sure I can pop that amount into half a large blueberry.

I don't see why not if it doesn't have caffeine in it.

Baby aspirin is easier to cut once and dose. If you can get drops even better.
Personally if I had to use 300mg tabs, I would use 1/8 of a 300mg ×4 each day. One quarter of a 300mg tab is OK for large ducks but too much for small ducks
