        test
      • Interaction with Alcohol

        Combination causes GI irritation, possible bleeding; avoid or limit alcohol. Patients at increased risk include those prone to hypoprothrombinemia, vitamin K deficiency, thrombocytopenia, thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura, severe hepatic impairment, and those receiving anticoagulants.
      • Interaction with Others

        • Folic acid: Hyperexcretion of folate; folic acid deficiency may result, leading to macrocytic anemia. Supplement with folic acid if necessary.
        • Iron: With chronic aspirin use and at doses of 3-4 g/day, iron deficiency anemia may result; supplement with iron if necessary.
        • Sodium: Hypernatremia resulting from buffered aspirin solutions or sodium salicylate containing high sodium content. Avoid or use with caution in CHF or any condition where hypernatremia would be detrimental.
        • Curry powder, paprika, licorice, Benedictine liqueur, prunes, raisins, tea and gherkins: Potential salicylate accumulation. These foods contain 6 mg salicylate/100 g. An ordinarily American diet contains 10-200 mg/day of salicylate. Foods containing salicylates may contribute to aspirin hypersensitivity. Patients at greatest risk for aspirin hypersensitivity include those with asthma, nasal polyposis or chronic urticaria.
        • Fresh fruits containing vitamin C: Displaces drug from binding sites, resulting in increased urinary excretion of aspirin. Educate patients regarding the potential for a decreased analgesic effect of aspirin with consumption of foods high in vitamin C.
      • Interaction with Lab Test

        False-negative results for glucose oxidase urinary glucose tests (Clinistix®); false-positives using the cupric sulfate method (Clinitest®); also, interferes with Gerhardt test, VMA determination; 5-HIAA, xylose tolerance test and T3 and T4.
      • Interaction with Medicine

        • ACE inhibitors: The effects of ace inhibitors may be blunted by aspirin administration, particularly at higher dosages.
        • Buspirone increases aspirin's free % in vitro.
        • Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and corticosteroids have been associated with alteration in salicylate serum concentrations.
        • Heparin and low molecular weight heparins: Concurrent use may increase the risk of bleeding.
        • Methotrexate serum levels may be increased; consider discontinuing aspirin 2-3 days before high-dose methotrexate treatment or avoid concurrent use.
        • NSAIDs may increase the risk of gastrointestinal adverse effects and bleeding. Serum concentrations of some NSAIDs may be decreased by aspirin.
        • Platelet inhibitors (IIb/IIa antagonists): Risk of bleeding may be increased.
        • Probenecid effects may be antagonized by aspirin.
        • Sulfonylureas: The effects of older sulfonylurea agents (tolazamide, tolbutamide) may be potentiated due to displacement from plasma proteins. This effect does not appear to be clinically significant for newer sulfonylurea agents (glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride).
        • Valproic acid may be displaced from its binding sites which can result in toxicity.
        • Verapamil may potentiate the prolongation of bleeding time associated with aspirin.
        • Warfarin and oral anticoagulants may increase the risk of bleeding.
      • Interaction with Disease

        • Use with caution in patients with platelet and bleeding disorders, renal dysfunction, dehydration, erosive gastritis, or peptic ulcer disease.
        • Avoid use in severe renal failure or in severe hepatic failure.
        • Discontinue use if tinnitus or impaired hearing occurs.
        • Caution in mild-moderate renal failure (only at high dosages).
        • Patients with sensitivity to tartrazine dyes, nasal polyps and asthma may have an increased risk of salicylate sensitivity.
        • Surgical patients should avoid ASA if possible, for 1-2 weeks prior to surgery, to reduce the risk of excessive bleeding.
      • Interaction with Food

        May decrease the rate but not the extent of oral absorption. Drug may cause GI upset, bleeding, ulceration, perforation. Take with food or large volume of water or milk to minimize GI upset.
