A member asked:
Can you tell me how aspirin or any of nsaids affect the function of platelets ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Low-dose aspirin use irreversibly blocks the formation of thromboxane A2 in platelets, producing an inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation during the lifetime of the affected platelet (8–9 days). This acts to thin the blood by not allowing platelets to clump together.
