Mild to moderate heart failure — a standard NSAID should be prescribed (but not diclofenac or high-dose ibuprofen), and the person should be monitored closely
An overview of the
COX is needed to Selective NSAIDs — Selective NSAIDs (also called COX-2 inhibitors) are as effective in relieving pain and inflammation as nonselective NSAIDs and are less likely to

The anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of IBP are thought to arise from inhibition of COX-2 rather than COX-1
COX-2 selective inhibitors, diclofenac (150 mg daily) and ibuprofen (2
Scan the label of over-the-counter ibuprofen and you’ll see that adults and children 12 years and older are advised to take one (or two, if needed) 200-milligram
Background: The reported binding mode of ibuprofen in the COX-2 binding site indicated that the carboxylic group binds with Arg-120 and Tyr-355 at the entrance of the cyclooxygenase channel and does not extend into the pocket
The ratio between the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50) values for COX‐1 and COX‐2 has been used to describe the variable COX‐2 selectivity of these agents and
The rationale for developing selective COX-2 inhibitors is due to the concept that the therapeutic effects of traditional NSAIDs are related to inhibition of COX-2 while the adverse effects, such as gastrointestinal ulcers or uncontrolled bleeding, are caused by the concurrent inhibition of the COX-1 isoform
Ibuprofen, ketoprofen, flurbiprofen, indomethacin, sulindac, and diclofenac are classical NSAIDs
Indomethacin has been reported Objectives: To compare selective COX-2 inhibitors with ibuprofen in terms of analgesia, rescue medication consumption, and adverse effects after impacted third molar removal
Although there are limited data regarding the thrombotic effects of aceclofenac , treatment advice has been updated in line with diclofenac, based on aceclofenac's structural similarity to diclofenac and The three categories are: Category 1: rapid competitive reversible binding of COX-1 and COX-2 (e
Clinical uses
However, two COX-2 inhibitors, Vioxx and Bextra, were removed from the market in 2004 and 2005 due to an increased risk of serious cardiovascular events
Nonselective COX inhibitors have serious side effects, particularly in the gastrointestinal system, which limits their long-term usage (0
Other NSAIDs include non-selective COX inhibitors, such as ibuprofen and naproxen, and those with some selectivity for COX2 while also inhibiting COX1, such as diclofenac, etodolac and meloxicam A COX-2 inhibitor used to treat osteoarthritis and dysmenorrhoea
(If both drugs need to be taken, one could reduce the extent of this interaction by giving aspirin 30 min prior to taking ibuprofen, since aspirin's effect on COX is Selective NSAIDs — Selective NSAIDs (also called COX-2 inhibitors) are as effective in relieving pain and inflammation as nonselective NSAIDs and are less likely to cause gastrointestinal injury
