If the originals were uncoated, shouldn't it be very easy to just make your own and make sure it dissolves at exactly the rate you need?
Regardless, always nice to see people using creative low tech solutions to serious problems.
- Beanus 8y agoI'm sure a new solution will be adopted some day. The aspirin is likely just a novel cheap and, at the time, easily available solution. Possibly we won't need them in the future because we'll accelerate beam with superconducting rf cavities.

- busterarm 8y agoWouldn't it be simple (if a little laborious) to crush up the coated aspirin and then use a pill press to make new pills?
- peterwwillis 8y agoYou can also just scrape the coating off with a knife or rasp/file.
- ConcernedCoder 8y agoFYI: I'm willing to do the scraping, just so I can say I work at Fermilab :)
