Aspirin: Aspirin works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is responsible for producing prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are chemicals that promote inflammation, pain, and fever. By reducing the production of these chemicals, aspirin alleviates pain and reduces inflammation and fever. Additionally, it inhibits platelet aggregation, preventing blood clots.
Pain and Fever: Aspirin is commonly used to alleviate mild to moderate pain and fever. Cardiovascular Protection: Low-dose aspirin is often used in patients who are at risk of heart attacks or strokes.
