Introduction: The discovery of the two isoforms of cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) has paved the way for the development of a new class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The COX-2 inhibitors have shown comparable efficacy to the traditional NSAIDs with less gastrointestinal side effects in major clinical studies.

Update on Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors [PDF]
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs represent the most commonly used medications for the treatment of pain and inflammation, but numerous well-described side effects can limit their use. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors were initially touted as a therapeutic strategy to avoid not only the gastrointestinal but also the renal and cardiovascular side ...

Individualized ibuprofen treatment using serial B-type natriuretic peptide measurement for symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus in very preterm infants [PDF]
PurposePlasma level of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), an emerging, sensitive, and specific biomarker of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), rapidly decreases in infants receiving cyclooxygenase inhibitors for ductal closure. We

Antiproliferative Benzoindazolequinones as Potential Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors
Quinones and nitrogen heterocyclic moieties have been recognized as important pharmacophores in the development of antitumor agents. This study aimed to establish whether there was any correlation between the in silico predicted parameters and the in ...

Rofecoxib and cardiovascular adverse events in adjuvant treatment of colorectal cancer [PDF]
Background Selective cyclooxygenase inhibitors may retard the progression of cancer, but they have enhanced thrombotic potential. We report on cardiovascular adverse events in patients receiving rofecoxib to reduce rates of recurrence of colorectal ...
