A long term regimen of aspirin, commonly used as a pain reliever, can significantly reduce the risk of heart attack. A recent study tested a different pain relieving drug, ibuprofen, to see if it had similar effects. Not only did subjects who took that drug more than 60 days a year see no further reduction in the risk of heart attack, but those who took both aspirin and ibuprofen lost the heart benefits of the former.
The above passage best supports the conclusion that those who are trying to reduce their risk of suffering a heart attack should
a) use only aspirin as a pain reliever.
b) take a greater dosage of aspirin if they use ibuprofen.
c) use ibuprofen instead of aspirin for pain relief.
d) avoid taking both ibuprofen and aspirin regularly.
e) stop using pain relievers if they suffer a heart attack.

IMO ans. D
Stimulus Contains premises which pressure more on to not take to drugs together than on to take aspirin as a pain reliever.
Only D satisfies the condition

An abysmal OA indeed, we are asked to find out a way to REDUCE the risk of heart attacks. It can be inferred by option D that by avoiding the use of both the drugs simultaneously we can avoid the risk of exacerbating the possibility of heart attacks but nowhere is it mentioned that it REDUCES the instance of getting a heart attack, whereas we clearly know aspirin REDUCES the possibility of heart attacks. Kindly correct me if I am wrong. Thank you!
