Aspirin (as Non-Selective Cox 1&2 Inhibitor)
"Figure 2. Selective inhibition of platelet COX-1 activity vs monocyte COX-2 activity measured in vitro after the addition of aspirin to whole-blood samples drawn from healthy human subjects. Bars represent Mean ±SD. Modified from Cipollone et al (1997)."
Looking at the graph would it be more beneficial to take a low dose daily or a higher dose weekly, assessing the risk-benefit that we all know, as aspirin's antiplatelet effect lasts 8-10 days (the life of the platelet)?
