Aspirin achieves many of its desired effects by what?
blocking the enzymatic production of prostaglandins
Can you boil aspirin into pure opium?
Of course not! There is no relationship between the two chemical compounds.
Does Aspirin inhibit vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation by blocking synthesis of the prostaglandin?
Aspirin (acetlysalicylic acid) is an irreversible inhibitor of the cyclo-oxygenase (COX-I and COX-II) enzymes which are responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid into the prostaglandins. It is supposed that this happens due to the acetylation effects of aspirin.
What is the relationship between aspirin and carboxylic acid?
Aspirin is part of the mickey mouse club house in Venezuela. But, a carboxylic acid is part of the Minnie Mouse club house in Brazil.
How aspirin causes increased prothrombin time?

What is the difference between aspirin to buffered aspirin?
Buffered aspirin has an added buffering agent so that it is easier on the stomach.
Are prostaglandins made in the renal medulla?
Yes, prostaglandins are made in the renal medulla.
Is aspirin in opium?
There is no aspirin in opium, and there is no opium in aspirin. Opiates and opioids act by blocking pain receptors in the central nervous system and do not contain any NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which include aspirin and ibuprofen). Aspirin and other non-narcotic drugs do not act on the central nervous system. Instead, they help relieve pain by reducing swelling/inflammation, hindering pain chemicals (prostaglandins), and bringing down fevers. It is worth noting that a combination of aspirin and opium works better to relieve pain than giving these two medicines separately.
Are prostaglandins proteins?
no
What is the difference between aspirin and nsaid?
