Aspirin drug molecule
Aspirin. Molecular model of the drug aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour coded: carbon (blue), oxygen (red) and hydrogen (grey). Aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is taken as an analgesic (painkiller), antipyretic (reduces fever) and anticoagulant (prevents blood clotting)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of aspirin, a widely used drug in the field of medicine. The image beautifully illustrates the composition of this pharmaceutical marvel, with atoms represented as vibrant spheres color-coded to distinguish carbon (blue), oxygen (red), and hydrogen (grey). Aspirin, also known as acetylsalicylic acid, belongs to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) family and serves multiple purposes in healthcare. The artistic representation highlights its significance as an analgesic or painkiller, providing relief from various discomforts. Additionally, aspirin acts as an antipyretic agent by effectively reducing fever. Its remarkable anticoagulant properties make it instrumental in preventing blood clotting – a crucial function that has saved countless lives. Through this visually striking illustration, we are reminded of the pivotal role chemistry plays in pharmacology and biochemistry. The ball-and-stick model employed here allows us to appreciate the precision involved in creating such medications. This artwork is not only aesthetically pleasing but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and scientific advancement. Science Photo Library presents this mesmerizing print for all those fascinated by medical breakthroughs and intrigued by molecular structures. It encapsulates both artistry and scientific knowledge while refraining from any commercial connotations associated with aspirin's brand name or specific company use.
