Overview of Acetylsalicylic Acid
Acetylsalicylic Acid, commonly known as Aspirin, is a widely used pharmaceutical active ingredient with analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, and antiplatelet properties. It belongs to the salicylate class of drugs and works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, thereby reducing the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain, inflammation, and fever.
Acetylsalicylic Acid appears as a white, crystalline powder with a faint acidic odour. It is slightly soluble in water and freely soluble in alcohol and organic solvents. Due to its proven efficacy, stability, and versatility, it is extensively used in tablets, capsules, powders, and combination pharmaceutical formulations.
