Description

Dexketoprofen Pharmacodynamics
Dexetoprofen trometamol, trometamine salt of S-(+) enantiomer of propionic acid, belongs to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and has analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects. The mechanism of action of dexketoprofen is associated with reduction of prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting the activity of cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2). The drug inhibits the conversion of arachidonic acid into cyclic endoperoxides PGG2 and PGI12. which produce prostaglandins PGHL PGE2. PGF2a and PGD2, as well as irostacyclin PGI2 and thromboxanes (TxA2 and TxB2). In addition, inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis can affect other inflammatory mediators such as kinins. providing not only direct but also indirect effects.
The inhibitory effect of dexketoprofen against COX-1 and COX-2 activity has been demonstrated in laboratory animals and in humans.
Clinical studies on various clinical models of pain showed that dexketoprofen has a pronounced analgesic activity. According to studies, the analgesic effect comes in 30 minutes after taking the drug, the duration of analgesic effect is 4 – 6 hours.
