Aspirin
Aspirin has a profoundly dose-dependent safety and indication profile in pregnancy that mandates clear clinical distinction between low-dose (75–100 mg/day, antiplatelet) and high-dose (≥325 mg, analgesic/anti-inflammatory) use. Low-dose aspirin (LDA) is a cornerstone intervention in obstetric medicine: ACOG, USPSTF (Grade B recommendation), WHO, NICE, and FIGO all recommend initiating LDA at 12–16 weeks gestation (optimally before 16 weeks, ideally by 12 weeks) in women at increased risk of preeclampsia, reducing its incidence by approximately 10–24% overall and by up to 62% when initiated before 16 weeks in high-risk women (ASPRE trial). LDA is also used for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), prevention of recurrent pregnancy loss in APS, and thromboprophylaxis in specific haematological conditions. High-dose aspirin functions as a full NSAID and carries the class risks of premature closure of the ductus arteriosus (particularly after 20 weeks, critically so after 32 weeks), fetal renal impairment, oligohydramnios, inhibition of labour, and maternal and fetal haemostatic compromise. High-dose aspirin should be avoided after 20 weeks of gestation and is contraindicated after 32 weeks. The FDA issued a Drug Safety Communication in 2020 strengthening warnings against NSAID use (including high-dose aspirin) from 20 weeks onwards.
