Abstract
Patients may require both low-dose aspirin (ASA) and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). This raises the questions of whether NSAIDs may inhibit the cardioprotective effects of low-dose ASA; whether the cardioprotective effect of low-dose ASA can be obtained by NSAIDs: and whether the combination of low-dose ASA and NSAIDs increases the risk of adverse effects. This review attempts to answer these questions.
