A method is disclosed for inducing thromboxane suppression in a mammalian subject by percutaneously administering a pharmaceutical composition containing aspirin. Articles useful for practicing the therapeutic methods of the invention are also disclosed.

External preparations containing Aspirin which are stored for a long term and superior in dermal absorbability. The preparations are prepared by mixing Aspirin together with at least one substance selected from an ester of an organic acid ester having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, a glycerol fatty acid ester, silicon oil, hydrocarbon oil and crotamiton.

A pharmaceutical composition is provided which is useful for cholesterol lowering and reducing the risk of a myocardial infarction, which includes a statin, such as pravastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin, atorvastatin, cerivastatin or fluvastatin, in combination with aspirin, in a manner to minimize interaction of aspirin with the statin and minimize side effects of aspirin. A method for lowering cholesterol and reducing risk of a myocardial infarction employing such composition is also provided.

A stabilized enteric coated aspirin granule product prepared by commingling the enteric coated aspirin granules with glutamic acid hydrochloride.

A stabilized enteric coated aspirin granule product prepared by commingling the enteric coated aspirin granules with glutamic acid hydrochloride.

The present invention is directed to a development for alleviating the adverse side-effects of taking non-steroid analgesics and anti-inflammatory agents such as aspirin, by also ingesting vitamin A (or B-carotene) formulations. It has been found that vitamin A ingestion has a salutary and therapeutic effect, in that the vitamin A decreases toxicity, including ulcerogenesis, due to ingestion of such agents, e.g. aspirin. Aspirin per se is a very effective medication with pronounced analgesic pro...

Aspirin compositions for oral and topical use are stabilized by reaction with potassium hydroxide.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying and treating subjects in need of antithrombotic therapies but who are not responsive to aspirin.

Provided is a method of treating thrombosis in mammals by administering therapeutically effective amounts of a combination of (i) a Factor Xa inhibitor, and (ii) a compound selected from the group consisting of aspirin, TPA, a GPIIb/IIIa antagonist, low molecular weight heparin and heparin, wherein the dose administered for at least one of (i) and (ii) is a subtherapeutic dose. Preferably, the combination of (i) and (ii) provides a synergistic effect.

The treatment of migraine and/or cluster headaches in human beings in need of such treatment includes oral administration of a composition containing acetaminophen, ibuprofen, caffeine and magnesium as the active ingredients. The inclusion of an additional active ingredient, guaifenesin, further provides treatment for severe sinus headaches. Compositions and methods for alleviating the symptoms of these headache conditions are disclosed.
