Description

Nurofast Pharmacodynamics
The mechanism of action of ibuprofen, a derivative of propionic acid from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), is due to the inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins – mediators of pain, inflammation and hyperthermia. Indiscriminately blocks cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), thereby inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins. It has a fast directed action against pain (analgesic), antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effect. In addition, ibuprofen reversibly inhibits platelet aggregation. The analgesic effect of the drug lasts up to 8 hours.
