Tens of thousands more women at increased risk of breast cancer could benefit from a risk-reducing drug on the NHS, after it was licensed in a new use to help prevent the disease.

That’s more women like Lesley who said it was 'life-changing'. ➡️ https://t.co/pYLgbNJSyE

2022 marks 125 years since Felix Hoffmann developed and patented a process for synthesising acetyl salicylic acid or #aspirin. It has since been found to have many valuable uses, including in the prevention and management of #cancer https://t.co/um6YZwVuTT #125yearsofaspirin
