PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
ATC – vet classification code: QB01AC06. Antithrombotic veterinary drugs. Acetylsalicylic acid.
Acetylsalicylic acid is an NSAID, a group of salicylates, which has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effects, prevents thrombosis, promotes rapid recovery of young animals and reduces performance losses.
The main mechanism of action of acetylsalicylic acid is the inactivation of the COX enzyme (cyclooxygenase), resulting in a decrease in the production of inflammatory mediators: prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane. A decrease in the synthesis of prostaglandins leads to a decrease in their effect on the thermoregulatory centers, which leads to a decrease in temperature, elevated due to inflammation. Reduces the sensitizing effect of prostaglandins on pain-sensitive nerve endings, reduces their sensitivity to pain mediators. Irreversible inhibition of the synthesis of thromboxane A2 in platelets determines the antiplatelet effect of acetylsalicylic acid.
