- Pain [r]: Unpleasant feeling or hurtful sensation that is conveyed to the brain by stimulation of sensory neurons. [e]
Subtopics
Pathways of action
- Cyclooxygenase [r]: An enzyme that is responsible for the key step in prostaglandin biosynthesis. [e]
- Prostaglandin [r]: Add brief definition or description
Classes and drugs
- Cyclooxygenase inhibitors [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Diclofenac [r]: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) with antipyretic and analgesic actions. [e]
- Indomethacin [r]: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic agent, used in arthritic disorders and degenerative joint disease, and to treat soft-tissue sports injuries. [e]
- Ibuprofen [r]: An analgesic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. [e]

- Diclfonac [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Ketorolac [r]: Add brief definition or description

Indications
- Headache [r]: Continuous pain perceived as being in the cranium. [e]
- Lumbalgia [r]: Common musculoskeletal disorder caused by a variety of diseases and trauma that affect the lumbar spine. [e]
- Arthritis [r]: A group of medical conditions where there is damage caused to the joints of the body. [e]
- Common cold [r]: Contagious viral upper respiratory tract infection. [e]
- Gout [r]: Disturbance of uric-acid metabolism, characterized by painful inflammation of the joints, especially of the feet, from the deposition of urate crystals. [e]
- Fever [r]: Elevation in the central body temperature of warm-blooded animals caused by abnormal functioning of the thermoregulatory mechanisms. [e]
Side effects
- Acute kidney injury [r]: Formerly termed acute renal failure (ARF), an abrupt (within 48 hours) reduction in kidney function currently defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine, a percentage increase in serum creatinine , or a reduction in urine output beyond quantitatively defined levels [e]
- Peptic ulcer disease [r]: Ulceration of the lining of the gastrointestinal tract that is usually acidic and thus extremely painful. [e]
- Glucocorticoid [r]: Corticosteroids that affect carbohydrate metabolism, inhibit adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion, and are anti-inflammatory. [e]
