| Loxoprofen sodium Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Loxoprofen sodium i s an antiinflammatory/analgesic agent useful in the management of rheumatoid arthritis and related disorders. It is converted in vivo to the corresponding trans-hydroxycyclopentane analog, through which it appears to exert its activity. | Originator | Sankyo (Japan) | Uses | anti-inflammatory | Definition | ChEBI: A hydrate that is the dihydrate form of loxoprofen sodium. The parent acid, loxoprofen, is a prodrug that is rapidly converted to its active trans-alcohol metabolite following oral administration. | Brand name | LOXONIN | Mechanism of action | As most NSAIDs, loxoprofen is a non-selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor, and works by reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid. | Side effects | Adverse effects include anorexia, nausea, vomiting, bleeding, anemia, diarrhea, and constipation. |
