Additionally, lysine acetylsalicylate shows a faster onset of action when compared to oral aspirin of an equivalent dose. [18] Lysine acetylsalicylate also displays a shorter mean residence time in the body (0.37 hours) as well as a shorter elimination half-life (17 minutes) when administered intravenously, which could indicate that it displays ...
Allowing sufficient time between doses of ibuprofen and immediate-release (IR) aspirin can avoid this problem.

An equianalgesic chart is a conversion chart that lists equivalent doses of analgesics (drugs used to relieve pain). Equianalgesic charts are used for calculation of an equivalent dose (a dose which would offer an equal amount of analgesia) between different analgesics. [1]
Lidocaine's half-life in the body is about 1.5–2 hours. [2] The time it takes for the anesthetic medication to prevent pain in the area (speed of onset) and length of time that the area does not have painful sensations are considerations when choosing an appropriate approach to dental treatment.
