Arms	Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: Aspirin 75mg Aspirin 75mg once daily for 7 days. Administered by mouth.	Drug: Aspirin 75mg 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.
Active Comparator: Aspirin 1200mg Asprin 600mg twice daily for 7 days. Administered by mouth.	Drug: Aspirin 1200mg 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.
Placebo Comparator: Lactose powder Placebo for 7 days. Administered by mouth.	Drug: Lactose powder 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.
