N02BA01 • acetylsalicylic acid • Nervous system | Other analgesics and antipyretics | Salicylic acid and derivatives

Acetylsalicylic acid commonly known as aspirin, is a widely used medication for its analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate pain, fever reduction, and inflammation relief.

Additionally, acetylsalicylic acid is used in low doses to prevent blood clot formation, making it a key medication in the prevention of heart attacks and strokes in patients with high cardiovascular risk.

Side effects may include gastric irritation, an increased risk of bleeding, and, in rare cases, Reye's syndrome in children, which is why it is not recommended for children under 16 without medical advice. Patients should follow the prescribed dosage and inform their doctor about any pre-existing conditions or medications.
