a client asks the nurse what dose of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is needed for antiplatelet effects to prevent heart attacks. what dose is most appropriate to reduce platelet aggregation?

Respuesta :

To reduce platelet aggregation, which is required for antiplatelet effects to prevent heart attacks, a dose of 30 mg acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is most suitable.

Acetylsalicylic acid usually referred to as aspirin or ASA, is a type of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine (NSAID) that is used to treat inflammation, fever, and/or pain as well as prevent blood clots. Rheumatic fever, pericarditis, and Kawasaki illness are a few specific inflammatory disorders that aspirin is used to treat. An unsettled stomach is a typical negative consequence.

Cyclooxygenase is almost entirely inhibited in circulating platelets by a single dose of 300-600 mg or by successive doses of 30 mg. 10 mg is an insufficient dose. 1000 mg and 625 mg are excessive amounts.
