Pharmacological effect
Aspirin Express belongs to the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and has analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects.
Special instructions
Concomitant use with other NSAIDs and glucocorticoids is undesirable. 5–7 days before surgery, it is necessary to stop taking the drug (to reduce bleeding during surgery and in the postoperative period).
The likelihood of developing NSAID gastropathy is reduced when prescribed after meals, using tablets with buffer additives or coated with a special enteric coating. The risk of hemorrhagic complications is considered to be lowest when used in dosages.
It should be borne in mind that in predisposed patients, acetylsalicylic acid (even in small doses) reduces the excretion of uric acid from the body and can cause the development of an acute attack of gout.
During long-term therapy, it is recommended to regularly perform blood tests and examine stool for occult blood. Due to observed cases of hepatogenic encephalopathy, it is not recommended for the relief of febrile syndrome in children.

Pregnancy
The use of large doses of salicylates in the first trimester of pregnancy is associated with an increased incidence of fetal defects (cleft palate, heart defects). In the second trimester of pregnancy, salicylates can be prescribed only after assessing the risks and benefits. The administration of salicylates in the third trimester of pregnancy is contraindicated.
Salicylates and their metabolites pass into breast milk in small quantities.
Accidental intake of salicylates during lactation is not accompanied by the development of adverse reactions in the child and does not require cessation of breastfeeding. However, with long-term use or high doses, breastfeeding should be discontinued.

Strengthens the damaging effect of drugs on the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract
Glucocorticosteroids, alcohol and alcohol-containing drugs increase the damaging effect on the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract and increase the risk of developing gastrointestinal bleeding.
Impaired absorption of acetylsalicylic acid
Antacids containing magnesium and/or aluminum hydroxide slow down and impair the absorption of acetylsalicylic acid.
