Naproxen(CAT: I002699) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), specifically COX-1 and COX-2. By blocking COX enzymes, naproxen reduces the production of prostaglandins, which are involved in inflammation, pain, and fever. This leads to its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects. Naproxen is commonly used to treat various inflammatory conditions, including arthritis, gout, and musculoskeletal injuries. It is available in different formulations and dosages, including prescription and over-the-counter options. It’s important to note that naproxen, like other NSAIDs, may have potential side effects and should be used under medical supervision.
