Yes, and it is possible for this to kill your dog. Dogs are very sensitive to the side effects of aspirin, so you should never give your dog aspirin or any other human pain medication (Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, ibuprofen, acetominophen, etc.).

Why do some doctors prescribe aspirin a day for patients who have had a heart attack?

You should give 325 mg of aspirin to an adult who's having a heart attack because, not only is aspirin a painkiller and an anti-inflammatory, it's also a blood thinner. It will thin the blood and therefore reduce the blood pressure and may dissolve a blood clot that caused the heart attack or stroke.

Why can't pregnant women take aspirin?

How long is aspirin effective in your body?

Most people these days take aspirin due to it's antiplatelet aggregation effects, and not as a pain reliever for something like a headache. For that reason it is commonly referred to as a "blood thinner", but this is a misnomer.

Aspirin works to make platelets more "slippery" and less able to bind to other platelets or to sites of injured endothelial tissue by permanently binding to cyclooxgenase (COX) molecules on the surface of platelets thereby preventing the formation of thromboxane A2 (TXA2). Thus aspirin acts by inhibiting the ability of the COX enzyme to produce the precursors of thromboxane within platelets. This maintains the platelet in an inactive state and prevents platelet aggregation and coagulation for the life of the platelet.

The elimination half life of aspirin (salicylic acid) in a healthy individual is approximately 6 hours. But since the normal lifespan of a platelet is 8 to 10 days, the effects of aspirin can be seen for more than 8 days, or until all the aspirin inactivated platelets are replaced in your circulatory system. Many medical practitioners consider the antiplatelet aggregation action of aspirin to still be effective 5 days after the last dose of aspirin was taken.

I hope everyone finds this helpful.

No formula, just dimensional analysis and ratios. Aspirin is C9H8O6

Did Einstein discover aspirin?

If you have a headache, you might reach for the aspirin. And, aspirin is also known as a drug that can help in the event of heart attack. aspirin is a very successful drug, and even all of its qualities are not fully understood. But what is understood is that the synthesis of aspirin has made for the treatment of a number of ailments. While some of the chemicals found in aspirin have been known for centuries, the discovery of a way to synthesize a pure form of aspirin is relatively recent. The official record states that Felix Hoffmann discovered how to synthesize aspirin in 1897. However, new records indicate that it was actually his supervisor, Arthur Eichengrun, who discovered it. There is speculation that Eichengrun was erased in all references to the celebrated German brand due to the fact that he was a well known Nazi - which is odd since he was a Jew. In the end, Hoffmann got the glory, but we all get the benefits.

Is it possible to cause a miscarriage?

That is one hell of a worrying question....I hope you are OK. The simple answer is, No. You can obviously do some pretty darn harmful things to yourself and your fetus BUT there is no guarantee that you will cause a miscarriage and if anything you are more likely to cause harm to the fetus and yourself. Which means then you go from carrying a normal baby to a special needs baby. I'm not sure if you had an accident and are asking or you are trying to make a miscarriage happen because you don't want the baby. Yes, you certainly can. A bad fall (especially down stairs) but BEWARE it's not like you think it will be. There is a high risk as the above poster said that the miscarriage will not happen and you could well do harm to the baby. Also to yourself! If you want this baby and have had any type of fall or heavy lifting and feel 'off' please see your doctor. If you are a young woman that doesn't want the baby then spend the money and have the abortion done right. Please note I am not accusing you of anything, just giving you information.
