Author Name : Sachin Korde, Jugal Kishor Vyas, Vivek Paithankar, Anjali Wankhede

ABSTRACT

An increasing number of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory   drugs (NSAIDs) is available for clinical use each year.This article reviews significant differences between NSAIDs currently  available in Canada, and helps the clinician to evaluate new NSAIDs.While their mechanism of action and efficacy are similar,side effects and  costvary considerably from one agent to another. Because all NSAIDs can produce adverse effects,patients, especially if they are elderly,should be selected carefully for treatment with a particular agent.

Keywords: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, COX, NSAIDs, inflammation.
