We evaluated the pharmacodynamic interaction (lower bound of the one-sided 95% CI for serum TxB2 inhibition 98% at all time points. The clinical relevance of these observations remains unknown and merits further investigation since over-the-counter naproxen is widely used to relieve pain by individuals taking low dose aspirin for cardioprotection.
