Default Enteric Coated Aspirin?

Hello: can someone tell me if I can safely give my Beagle enteric-coated
aspirin? I know buffered is OK, but I'm wondering about the enteric-coated
variety. Thanks.

several years ago, I read that it the coating doesn't break down in a
dog's system (not in there long enough), so basically, they're not
getting any of the aspirin.

I've given Ascriptin , which has Maalox.

There are a lot of newer medicines though, and you should consult your
vet.

Definitely just give your vet a call. A question like that wouldn't
require an appointment. I know for certain that the buffered aspirin
is okay, so I would stick with that.
