Aspirin History
First synthesized in pure form by Felix Hoffman of Friedr. Bayer & Co. in 1897.
(From the German acetylspirsaure + chemical suffix – in)
Aspirin History
Due to problems with the original Aspirin powder being counterfeited, it became the first pharmaceutical agent ever sold in pill form in early 1900’s.
First pill in USA was 5 grains (~325 mg).

What is “Aspirin Resistance?”
Inability of ASA to prevent treated patients from having thrombotic events.
Inability of ASA therapy to prolong bleeding time.
Inability of treatment with ASA to prevent thromboxane biosynthesis.
Inability of ASA to achieve a pre-defined effect on an ex vivo or in vitro measure of platelet function.
