Without resorting to research or statistical inference engines, based only on the average knowledge explained by my colleague OP, I will say that paracetamol is also toxic in continuous doses (people with chronic pain who resort to the medication for daily use) and has drug interactions with other agents (such as alcohol). Aspirin and Ibropufen are great but really do have a risk of ulcers. As for the thrombo-prophylactic issue, it is very poorly explained and I completely disagree. My readings to date have shown that both have a very slight rebound effect on the formation of thrombi and the main problem is the release of thrombi that have already formed, prior to the use of the medication.
