Interventions

Subjects randomised to aspirin 75mg will receive 1 container containing aspirin 75mg and 1 container containing placebo for the morning and 2 containers containing placebo for the evening. Subjects will take one capsule from each container in the morning and one capsule from each container in the evening.

Aspirin 75mg

Subjects randomised to placebo will receive 4 containers of placebo, 2 containers containing placebo for the morning and 2 containers containing placebo for the evening. Subjects will take one capsule from each container in the morning and one capsule from each container in the evening.

Lactose powder

Subjects randomised to aspirin 600mg 12 hourly will receive 2 containers of aspirin 300mg each for the morning and 2 containers of aspirin 300mg each for the evening. Subjects will take one capsule from each container in the morning and one capsule from each container in the evening.
