Abstract
Low dose aspirin is recommended for prevention of preeclampsia, however there is not consensus on the appropriate dose. Pregnancy specific changes have the potential to impact the pharmacology of aspirin in pregnancy, however there are very limited studies on aspirin pharmacokinetics in pregnancy and none linking pharmacokinetics (PK, drug dose and drug level) to pharmacodynamics (PD, drug dose and physiologic response) in pregnancy. As a result, we do not have a good understanding of the pharmacologic response to aspirin in pregnancy, which has important implications for clinical efficacy. We sought to describe the PK and PD of aspirin through pregnancy and to identify individual covariates that impacted aspirin PK/PD.
