Aspirin, like any other pill, will irritate your stomach.
When you eat foods, they churn in your stomach and turn into harmless acids that dissolve more foods and digested things, until excreted. So, when you eat something before taking an Aspirin, there are more acids inside your stomach to help dissolve the Aspirin, reducing the irritation that it can have on your stomach and stomach lining.
If you don't eat before taking an Aspirin, you may get some stomach irritation, followed by a stomach ache, but it shouldn't be too severe. But, I would recommend having at least a small snack before taking one, or any other pill, for that matter

∙ 9y agoAspirin is an acidic substance and it does not dissolve very well. If you take it on an empty stomach,it is possible for bits of undissolved medicine to stick to the stomach wall and irritate it (it can cause an ulcer). The presence of food tends to help prevent this happening.

Can you use acetaminophen and ibuprofen for weight loss?
No. Neither contain appetite suppressants and in fact, taking both or either on an empty stomach will cause nausea, sometimes sever nausea depending on how empty the stomach is and the individual. Continuing to regularly take acetaminophen (aspirin) without food can cause stomach ulcers and damage the lining of the stomach. It just doesn't work. Added: Just wanted to make a quick, but important note: acetaminophen is NOT the same as aspirin, as it might be concluded from the answer above. In fact, acetaminophen (Tylenol) is a NON-ASPIRIN pain reliever that may be taken by people who cannot/should not take blood-thinning substances, such as aspirin.
