A 35-year-old woman undergoes an elective vaginal hysterectomy. During this procedure, there is significant loss of blood with oozing from small vessels. Coagulation tests not ordered would have shown a normal PT, PTT, and platelet count, but a prolonged bleeding time. What over-the-counter drug the patient took just prior to the procedure is the most probable cause for these findings? Acetaminophen Codeine Acetylsalicylic acid | Pheny|propanolamine Ephedrine
