One-hundred-and-ninety-three men with unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) (i.e. unstable angina or a non-Q wave myocardial infarction) were randomized in a double-blind fashion to acetylsalicyclic acid (ASA) 75 mg daily (n = 100) or placebo (n = 93) within 72 h of admission to the Coronary Care Unit. Platelet function was evaluated as ex vivo aggregation toward collagen and ADP before and after 5 days, 1, 12, 18 and 24 months of treatment. ASA decreased aggregation by collagen 1 mg 1−1from 81.3 ±1.7% before to 34.0 ±1.7% after 1 month (P<0.001), while no change was observed in the placebo group. Aggregation by ADP 1 μm after 1 month was 42.1 ±1.1% and 51.0 ±2.0% in the ASA and placebo groups respectively (P<0.001). The platelet inhibition by ASA was maintained during 24 months. All ASA patients had reduced aggregation during treatment. A cumulative dose of 300 mg (4 doses of 75 mg) was not enough for maximal inhibition at the second aggregation test.Thus, ASA 75 mg daily causes platelet inhibition in all patients without attenuation during long-term treatment. If low dose ASA is started in unstable coronary artery disease a loading dose exceeding 300 mg is suggested.
