use as
Introduction
• Antipyretic • Anti-inflammatory • Analgesic agents

4. Mechanism of action
 The main mechanism of action of NSAIDs is the inhibition of the enzyme cyclooxygenase
(COX). Cyclooxygenase is required to convert arachidonic acid into thromboxane's,
prostaglandins, and prostacyclin’s.
 Thromboxane play a role in platelets adhesion, prostaglandins cause vasodilation, increase
the temperature set-point in the hypothalamus, and play a role in anti-nociception.
 There are two cyclooxygenase isoenzymes, COX-1 and COX-2. COX-1 gets expressed in
the body, and it plays a role in maintaining gastrointestinal mucosa lining, kidney function,
and platelet aggregation. COX-2 is not expressed in the body, and instead it inducible
expresses during an inflammatory response.
 Most of the NSAIDs are nonselective and inhibit both COX-1 and COX-2. However, COX-
2 selective NSAIDs (ex. celecoxib) only target COX-2 and therefore have a different side
effect profile.
 Importantly, because COX-1 is the prime mediator for ensuring gastric mucosal integrity
and COX-2 is mainly involved in inflammation, COX-2 selective NSAIDs should provide
anti-inflammatory relief without compromising the gastric mucosa

10. Conclusion
 NSAIDs used largely for the treatment of pain, inflammation
and fever.
 Adverse effects occur at a much higher rate in patients with
specific diseases, it is crucial for physicians, nurses, and
pharmacists to pay close attention to a patient's history and to
educate the patient accordingly on risks and dosing.
 The patient should not use NSAIDs as an OTC agent.
 We should take NSAIDs with the doctor’s prescription.
