Application
Acetylsalicylic acid EP Reference standard, intended for use in laboratory tests only as specifically prescribed in the European Pharmacopoeia.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Blocks the production of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (prostaglandin H synthase), with greater selectivity toward the COX-1 isoform. The antithrombotic effect is due to the inhibition of COX-1 in platelets that blocks thromboxane production and platelet aggregation. Chemopreventive against colorectal and other solid tumors.

Platelet response to low-dose enteric-coated aspirin in patients with stable cardiovascular disease.
Andrew O Maree et al.
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 46(7), 1258-1263 (2005-10-04)
We investigated whether use of low-dose enteric-coated (EC) aspirin for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events has sufficient bioavailability to achieve complete platelet cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition in all individuals. Aspirin reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with pre-existing vascular disease;
Christina Perneby et al.
Thrombosis and haemostasis, 95(4), 652-658 (2006-04-08)
Aspirin is widely used, but dosages in different clinical situations and the possible importance of "aspirin resistance" are debated. We performed an open cross-over study comparing no treatment (baseline) with three aspirin dosage regimens--37.5 mg/day for 10 days, 320 mg/day
A O Maree et al.
Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH, 3(10), 2340-2345 (2005-09-10)
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) irreversibly inhibits platelet cyclooxygenase (COX)-1, the enzyme that converts arachidonic acid (AA) to the potent platelet agonist thromboxane (TX) A2. Despite clear benefit from aspirin in patients with cardiovascular disease (CAD), evidence of heterogeneity in the way

JAMA, 312(23), 2510-2520 (2014-11-18)
Prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases is an important public health priority in Japan due to an aging population. To determine whether daily, low-dose aspirin reduces the incidence of cardiovascular events in older Japanese patients with multiple atherosclerotic risk factors. The

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 64(3), 319-327 (2014-07-19)
Although the use of oral anticoagulants (vitamin K antagonists) has been abandoned in primary cardiovascular prevention due to lack of a favorable benefit-to-risk ratio, the indications for aspirin use in this setting continue to be a source of major debate
