b (celebrex), blocks cox-2 and has little effect on cox-1, and is therefore further classified as a selective cox-2 inhibitor. selective cox-2 inhibitors cause less bleeding and fewer ulcers than other nsaids. nsaids are generally indicated for the symptomatic relief of the following conditions: rheumatoid arthritis osteoarthritis inflammatory arthropathies (e.g. ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, reiter's syndrome) acute gout dysmenorrhoea (menstrual pain) metastatic bone pain headache and migraine postoperative pain mild-to-moderate pain due to inflammation and tissue injury pyrexia (fever) ileus renal colic they are also given to neonate infants whose ductus arteriosus is not closed within 24 hours of birth aspirin, the only nsaid able to irreversibly inhibit cox-1, is also indicated for inhibition of platelet aggregation. complications of nsaids nsaids are safe drugs. however, they have many side effects. the side effects happen more often when they are used over long periods of time, which is common in arthritis …

olac limit its use. some surveys suggest that indomethacin or tolmetin are the nsaids associated with the greatest toxicity, while salsalate, aspirin, and ibuprofen are least toxic. the selective cox-2 inhibitors were not included in these analyses. choice of nsaid (cont’d) for patients with renal insufficiency, nonacetylated salicylates may be best. diclofenac and sulindac are associated with more liver function test abnormalities than other nsaids. the relatively expensive, selective cox-2 inhibitor celecoxib, is probably safest for patients at high risk for gastrointestinal bleeding but may have a higher risk of cardiovascular toxicity. celecoxib or a nonselective nsaid plus omeprazole or misoprostol may be appropriate in patients at highest risk for gastrointestinal bleeding; in this subpopulation of patients, they are cost-effective despite their high acquisition costs. the choice of an nsaid thus requires a balance of efficacy, cost-effectiveness, safety, and numerous personal factors (eg, other drugs also being used, concurrent illness, …

s of corticosteroids the most commonly used corticosteroids are prednisone, prednisolone, and methylprednisolone. corticosteroids can be given orally or put directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous needle. they can also be injected directly into an inflamed spot. corticosteroid cream can be rubbed on the skin. corticosteroids are powerful drugs. but they are also highly toxic. doctors have different opinions about how corticosteroids should be used. corticosteroids can't cure a disease. but they do seem to affect the development of some diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (ra). some commonly used natural and synthetic corticosteroids for general use short- to medium-acting glucocorticoids: hydrocortisone (cortisol) cortisone prednisone prednisolone methylprednisolone some commonly used natural and synthetic corticosteroids for general use intermediate-acting glucocorticoids triamcinolone paramethasone fluprednisolone long-acting glucocorticoids betamethasone dexamethasone corticosteroids withdrawal when stop taking corticosteroids, the doses will be slowly reduced over a period of days or weeks. even if patient has only been …
