NAME OF DRUG
ASPIRIN*
(acetylsalicylic acid tablets, USP)
THERAPEUTIC OR PHARMACOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION
Analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-pyretic and platelet aggregation
inhibitor.
ACTIONS
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) interferes with the production of
prostaglandins in various organs
and tissues through acetylation of the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase.
Prostaglandins are
themselves powerful irritants and produce headaches and pain on
injection in man.
Prostaglandins also appear to sensitize pain receptors to other
noxious substances such as
histamine and bradykinin. By preventing the synthesis and release of
prostaglandins in
inflammation, ASPIRIN* may avert the sensitization of pain receptors.
The antipyretic activity of ASA is due to its ability to interfere
with the production of
prostaglandin E
1
in the brain. Prostaglandin E
1
is one of the most powerful pyretic agents
known.
The inhibition of platelet aggregation by ASA is due to its ability to
interfere with the
production of thromboxane A
2
within the platelet. Thromboxane A
2
is, largely, responsible
for the aggregating properties of platelets.
