The renal effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) in dogs with chronic kidney disease (CKD)
… angiotensin II, and vasopressin. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) produce both their beneficial and detrimental effects through inhibition of the cyclooxygenase enzyme and subsequent interference with prostaglandin production. Healthy canine kidneys express both COX-1 …

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors in the treatment of urinary diseases and their effects on renal functions: clinical studies
… pressure, lower urethral pressure and inhibit antidiuretic hormone. We hypothesized that high production of prostaglandins or their dominant action on the urinary system may play a role in the pathogenesis of primary enuresis and nocturnal frequency of micturition. To test this, inhibition of …

Effects of chronic exposure to ibuprofen and naproxen on Florida flagfish (Jordanella floridae) over one complete life-cycle
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a class of drugs prescribed to relieve pain, fever and inflammation, and are among the most commonly consumed medications in Ontario. Approximately 70% of the ingested dose is excreted unchanged or as an active metabolite, much of which reaches the …

The Prostaglandin E2 Receptor Subtype 3E and its involvement in tauopathies
… in the onset of Alzheimer’s in subjects using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs inhibit enzymes in the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway which play a key role in synthesising prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) from arachidonic acid. PGE2 has been implicated in preclinical stages of …

The Pharmacokinetics of Firocoxib after Multiple Oral Doses to Neonatal Foals
… Foals are more sensitive to the side effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, (NSAIDs), particularly due to immature renal clearance mechanisms and ulcerogenic effects on gastric mucosa. Firocoxib, a novel second generation NSAID, is reported to have reduced side effects due to its COX-2 …

Aqueous humor concentration and prostaglandin E2 suppression efficacy of topically applied ophthalmic ketorolac 0.5% and diclofenac 0.1% solutions in dogs with cataract
Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for their analgesic, anti-pyretic and anti-inflammatory properties in both human and veterinary patients. Topical ophthalmic NSAIDs are commonly employed in the management of intraocular inflammation (uveitis), …

Monitoring medication problems in the elderly and strategies for their reduction.
… Of all 57 medication-related admissions, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were responsible in a quarter (24.5%, 14/57). The incidence of MRPs estimated against frequency of prescribing of each medication group was also highest with NSAIDs (17.6%, 18/102). Among groups of …
