Hello You are advised to take aspirin 325 mg and acetaminophen 325 mg ,together . You are advised these two drugs for hip joint pain, thigh and back pain. I want to tell you that acetaminophen is also known as paracetamol . When acetaminophen is taken together aspirin it enhances the anticoagulant action of aspirin , so be aware also .\ Beside these two will also produces hyper acidity ,gastritis , nausea , so in my opinion consult your treating doctor and get his opinion. As there are so many other potent medicine for joint and back pain so take 2nd opinion from a physician . Good luck. Together I don't recommend , however , different doctor has different opinion.
