The dosage for warfarin varies tremendously. I have managed patients who need less than 1mg per day up to a patient who needed 20mg a day. I would say the average dose is either 5mg or 7.5mg per day (usually in the evening).
The usual dose for aspirin is either 81mg per day or 325mg per day depending on a person's coronary risk and the doctor's preference. The medical community is not fully decided on which dose is the better one with fewer side effects as aspirin can cause GI bleeding, but too low a dose can decrease its protective properties against coronary/thrombotic troubles.
The usual dose for ticlopidine is 250mg twice a day with food.

Yes, there IS lots about this on the Internet. You just have to look up each drug. Dosage and strengths.

You have the right answer above, but here's some "enrichment" material, in case you are curious. You'll find info on your PT/INR question as well.
