Hai.u have not mentioned the dosage, whatever 100 tabs is too much, do not give any thing orally.keep her nill orally, take her to the emergency room as early as possiblefor an emergency stomach wash with cold saline, , checkout for vitals, bleeding tendency (gastrointestinal or rectal)haemogram, coagulation profile (pt, aptt, inr) )bleeding&clotting time.platelets.action of aspirin is normally for 7 days causing decreased platelets.tranfusion of fresh whole blood, fresh frozen plasma, or platlets, infusiom of pantoprazole, amino caproicacid will be of good help to stop the bleeding. This needs icu observationand she needs a good psychiatric counselling
