Aspirin dose for preventing preeclampsia in high-risk obese pregnancies
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two doses of aspirin (150 mg vs 100 mg) to see which is better at preventing preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy complication involving high blood pressure, in women who are obese and at higher risk. If you qualify, you would take one aspirin dose daily during pregnancy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two different doses of aspirin (a common safe medication) to see if one works better at preventing preeclampsia, a pregnancy complication, in women at higher risk. Taking part may help doctors find the best way to protect both you and your baby.
This trial compares two doses of aspirin to see which is better at preventing conditions like preeclampsia (a serious form of high blood pressure during pregnancy). You may qualify if you are in early pregnancy and have certain risk factors.
This study looks at whether taking aspirin for a longer or shorter time during pregnancy can better prevent preeclampsia, a serious condition with high blood pressure. It is for pregnant women already taking daily aspirin and found to be at high risk.
This study looks at how pregnant women at risk of pre-eclampsia process aspirin and how it affects their metabolism. Researchers will use blood and urine tests, along with body measurements and surveys, to learn more about how aspirin can help prevent pre-eclampsia.
This study compares taking a daily low-dose aspirin (a single pill) versus splitting the same dose into two smaller pills many hours apart to see which way better prevents preeclampsia in pregnant people who are at higher risk.
This study tests whether taking a low-dose aspirin every day can help improve blood vessel health in people who had preeclampsia within the past 5 years. The goal is to see if aspirin can lower the risk of future heart problems.
