Associated cell types: Interspersed among the many absorptive cells of the intestinal epithelium are scattered goblet cells, occasional enteroendocrine cells (which are difficult to distinguish in routine preparations), and occasional wandering cells of the immune system (e.g., lymphocytes, eosinophils).
In addition, Aspirin is used as a blood-thinner for prevention of stroke and heart disease, which Tylenol and Advil cannot do. Nevertheless, Aspirin should be avoided in children less than 18 years of age with viral illness, such as flu and chicken pox.
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Aspirin is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) effective in treating fever, pain, and inflammation in the body. It also prevents blood clots (i.e., is antithrombotic). As a group, NSAIDs are non-narcotic relievers of mild to moderate pain of many causes, including.ther members of this class include ibuprofen (Motrin), indomethacin (Indocin), nabumetone (Relafen) and several others. They all work by reducing the levels of prostaglandins, chemicals that are released when there is inflammation and that cause pain and fever.
