  1. Defining the COX Inhibitor Selectivity of NSAIDs - Medscape

    It also underpins the accepted mechanism of the gastrointestinal and renal toxicity of NSAIDs. However, in terms of NSAID-induced cardiovascular toxicity, is COX inhibition then guilty by association?

  2. Managing the Adverse Effects of NSAIDs - Page 2 - Medscape

    Mechanism of Action of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are a chemically heterogeneous group of compounds that provide unmistakable and significant health ...

  3. Antithrombotic Use and Mechanism of Action - Page 2 - Medscape

    Mar 1, 2001 · Aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) exert their antiplatelet actions by inhibiting both isoforms of COX and thereby blocking the formation of platelet-activating TXA 2. [6]

  4. Defining the COX Inhibitor Selectivity of NSAIDs - Page 5 - Medscape

    Clearly, such kinetic diversity in the mechanism of COX inhibition makes simple comparisons between NSAIDs of questionable validity and hence extrapolation of COX inhibition to cause–effect ...

  5. Acute Pain: Assessment and Treatment - Page 4 - Medscape

    Jan 3, 2011 · All NSAIDs, including COX-2 agents, have a "ceiling effect" [22, 36, 50] beyond which no further analgesic action will be exerted, but exceeding that dose will produce more adverse effects.

  6. Aspirin and Asthma - Medscape

    Nov 1, 2000 · Up to 20% of the asthmatic population is sensitive to aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and present with a triad of rhinitis, sinusitis, and asthma when exposed …

    Introduction Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a structurally diverse group of agents with analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties. The primary mechanism of action ...

  9. Managing the Adverse Effects of NSAIDs - Page 4 - Medscape

    The cardiovascular toxicity associated with the administration of NSAID selective for COX-2 and some tNSAIDs occurs through a common mechanism involving the inhibition of COX-2-dependent ...

  10. Defining the COX Inhibitor Selectivity of NSAIDs - Page 4 - Medscape

    However, literature data predominately detail the extent to which NSAIDs inhibit COX, rather than the mechanism of inhibition and the determination of kinetic inhibitor constants.
