Aspirin may lower melanoma risk

London, UK (SPX) Mar 13, 2013



A new study has found that women who take aspirin have a reduced risk of developing melanoma-and that the longer they take it, the lower the risk. The findings suggest that aspirin's anti-inflammatory effects may help protect against this type of skin cancer. The study is published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
