With reference to your article I want your comments on the following idea - Keeping in mind that time is muscle, recommendations to have chewable asprin in Pocket's of people with IHD at all times (who have no contraindications to asprin) - Pharmaceutical companies to design a pack with two tablets resistant to weather conditions and easy to keep in pocket - may be giving the name "pocket asprin" people might understand the extreme importance of taking the tablets on priorty on having symptoms and this might be very helpful in third world countries where urgent care is not avaliable.
