Aspirin
Aspirin is in a group of medications called salicylates; it is one of the antiplatelets. Aspirin works by stopping the production of certain natural substances that cause fever, pain swelling and blood clots. Aspirin is widely used as antiplatelet medication in secondary prevention to prevent heart attacks or stroke and can be consumed 81 mg, 1 p.o. daily. Statistical analysis of aspirin in patients after myocardial infarction was done by Stolarek et al. (2022)., they state that routine test should be done as well as anti-plate treatment effects. If missed the dose and it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dosed and continue the regular schedule. Do not take double dose to make up missed dose. A salicylates level test is most often used to evaluate aspirin poisoning, CBC should be monitoring too (Woo & Robinson, 2020).
