side effects
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug
• A therapeutic agent which relieves pain
and fever by inhibiting the inflammatory
response.
• These drugs are available over the
counter and by prescription.
• Some common examples include aspirin,
ibuprofen, Celebrex, and less commonly
acetaminophen (Tylenol).
Categories of NSAIDs
• There are two major categories for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
• The first is non-selective antiinflammatory drugs.
• The second is selective anti-inflammatory
drugs, COX-2 inhibitors.
The Inflammatory Response
• The body’s response to a stimuli which
causes pain and/or tissue damage.
• Physiologically capillaries become
“leaky” through vasodilation.
• The response is initiated by the chemical
messengers prostaglandins.
The innate immune response
• The innate response occurs immediately on
injury or infection. It comprises vascular and
cellular elements. Mediators generated by
cells or from plasma modify and regulate the
magnitude of the response.
• Tissue macrophages, bearing Toll receptors,
recognise specific pathogen-associated
molecular patterns on the microorganism and
release cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-1
and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, as well as
various chemokines.
• IL-1 and TNF-α act on local postcapillary venular
endothelial cells, causing:
– vasodilatation and fluid exudation
– expression of adhesion molecules on the cell surfaces.
• Exudate contains enzyme cascades that
generate bradykinin (from kininogen), and C5a
and C3a (from complement). Complement
activation lyses bacteria.
• C5a and C3a stimulate mast cells to release
histamine, which dilates local arterioles.
• Tissue damage and cytokines release
prostaglandin PG I2 and PGE2 (vasodilators) and
leukotriene (LT) B4 (chemotaxin).
• Cytokines stimulate synthesis of vasodilator
nitric oxide , which increases vascular
permeability.
• Using adhesion molecules, leucocytes roll on,
adhere to and finally migrate through vascular
endothelium towards the pathogen (attracted by
chemokines, IL-8, C5a, and LTB4), where
phagocytosis and killing takes place.
The adaptive response
• The adaptive (specific, acquired)
immunological response boosts the
effectiveness of the innate responses. It has
two phases, the induction phase and the
effector phase, the latter consisting of (i)
antibody-mediated and (ii) cell-mediated
components.
• During the induction phase, naive T cells bearing
either the CD4 or the CD8 coreceptors are
presented with antigen, triggering proliferation:
– CD8-bearing T cells develop into cytotoxic T cells that
can kill virally infected cells
– CD4-bearing Th cells are stimulated by cytokines to
develop into Th1 or Th2 cells
– Th2 cells control antibody-mediated responses by
stimulating B cells to proliferate, giving rise to
antibody-secreting plasma cells and memory cells
– Th1 cells develop into cells that release cytokines that
activate macrophages; these cells, along with cytotoxic
T cells, control cell-mediated responses.
• The effector phase depends on antibody- and
cell-mediated responses.
• Antibodies provide:
– more selective complement activation
– more effective pathogen phagocytosis
– more effective attachment to multicellular parasites,
facilitating their destruction
– direct neutralisation of some viruses and of some bacterial
toxins.
• Cell-mediated reactions involve:
– CD8+ cytotoxic T cells that kill virus-infected cells
– cytokine-releasing CD4+ T cells that enable macrophages to
kill intracellular pathogens such as the tubercle bacillus
– memory cells primed to react rapidly to a known antigen.
• Inappropriately deployed immune reactions are termed
hypersensitivity reactions.
• Anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs are
used when the normally protective inflammatory and/or
immune responses escape control.
Prostanoids
• The term prostanoids encompasses the
prostaglandins and the thromboxanes.
• Cyclo-oxygenases (COXs) oxidise
arachidonate, producing the unstable
intermediates prostaglandin (PG) G2 and
PGH2.
• There are two main COX isoforms: COX-1,
a constitutive enzyme, and COX-2, which
is often induced by inflammatory stimuli.
• PGI2 (prostacyclin), predominantly from
vascular endothelium, producing
vasodilatation and inhibition of platelet
aggregation.
• Thromboxane (TX) A2, predominantly
from platelets, causing platelet
aggregation and vasoconstriction.
• PGE2 is prominent in inflammatory
responses and is a mediator of fever.
Main effects are:
– EP1 receptors: contraction of bronchial and
gastrointestinal tract (GIT) smooth muscle
– EP2 receptors: relaxation of bronchial,
vascular and GIT smooth muscle
– EP3 receptors: inhibition of gastric acid
secretion, increased gastric mucus secretion,
contraction of pregnant uterus and of GIT
smooth muscle, inhibition of lipolysis and of
autonomic neurotransmitter release.
• PGF2α found in uterine (and other)
smooth muscle, and corpus luteum,
producing contraction of the uterus and
luteolysis (in some species).
• PGD2 is derived particularly from mast
cells causing vasodilatation and
inhibition of platelet aggregation
Clinical uses of prostanoids
• Gynaecological and obstetric
– termination of pregnancy: gemeprost or misoprostol (a
metabolically stable prostaglandin (PG) E analogue)
– induction of labour: dinoprostone or misoprostol
– postpartum haemorrhage: carboprost.
• Gastrointestinal
– to prevent ulcers associated with non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug use: misoprostol
• .
• Cardiovascular
– to maintain the patency of the ductus
arteriosus until surgical correction of the
defect in babies with certain congenital heart
malformations: alprostadil (PGE1)
– to inhibit platelet aggregation (e.g. during
haemodialysis): epoprostenol (PGI2),
especially if heparin is contraindicated
– primary pulmonary hypertension:
epoprostenol
• Ophthalmic
– open-angle glaucoma: latanoprost eye drops
Platelet-activating factor
• PAF is released from activated
inflammatory cells by phospholipase A2
and acts on specific receptors in target
cells
Pharmacological actions include
• vasodilatation, increased vascular
permeability, chemotaxis and activation
of leucocytes (especially eosinophils),
activation and aggregation of platelets,
and smooth muscle contraction.
• PAF is implicated in bronchial
hyperresponsiveness and in the delayed
phase of asthma.
Bradykinin
• BK is a nonapeptide 'clipped' from a
plasma α-globulin, kininogen, by
kallikrein.
• It is converted by kininase I to an
octapeptide, BK1-8 (des-Arg9-BK), and
inactivated by kininase II (angiotensinconverting enzyme) in the lung.
Pharmacological actions
– vasodilatation (largely dependent on
endothelial cell nitric oxide and prostaglandin
– increased vascular permeability
– stimulation of pain nerve endings
– stimulation of epithelial ion transport and fluid
secretion in airways and gastrointestinal tract
– contraction of intestinal and uterine smooth
muscle.
• There are two main subtypes of BK
receptors: B2, which is constitutively
present, and B1, which is induced in
inflammation.
• There are selective competitive
antagonists for both B1 receptors (desArg Hoe 140; pA2:8) and B2 receptors
(icatibant, pA2:9).
Cytokines
• Cytokines are polypeptides released
during inflammation that regulate the
action of inflammatory and immune
system cells.
• The cytokine superfamily includes the
interferons, interleukins, tumour necrosis
factor (TNF), growth factors, chemokines
and colony-stimulating factors.
• Utilising both autocrine or paracrine
mechanisms, they exert complex effects
on leucocytes, vascular endothelial cells,
mast cells, fibroblasts, haemopoietic
stem cells and osteoclasts, controlling
proliferation, differentiation and/or
activation.
• Interleukin (IL)-1 and TNF-α are important
primary inflammatory cytokines inducing
the formation of other cytokines.
• Interferon (IFN)-α and IFN-β have antiviral
activity, and IFN-α is used as an adjunct
in the treatment of viral infections. IFN-γ
has significant immunoregulatory
function and is used in the treatment of
multiple sclerosis
Leukotrienes
• 5-Lipoxygenase oxidises arachidonate to
give 5-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid
(5-HPETE), which is converted to
leukotriene (LT) A4. This, in turn, can be
converted to either LTB4 or to a series of
glutathione adducts, the cysteinylleukotrienes LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4.
• LTB4, acting on specific receptors,
causes adherence, chemotaxis and
activation of polymorphs and monocytes,
and stimulates proliferation and cytokine
production from macrophages and
lymphocytes.
• The cysteinyl-leukotrienes cause:
– contraction of bronchial muscle
– vasodilatation in most vessels, but coronary
vasoconstriction.
• LTB4 is an important mediator in all types
of inflammation; the cysteinylleukotrienes are of particular importance
in asthma.
Prostaglandins
• Prostaglandins were isolated from human
semen in 1936 by Ulf von Euler. He named
them Prostaglandins because he believed
they came from the prostate gland.
• The Swedish scientist received the Nobel
Prize in medicine in 1970 for this work.
• Since his work in this area it has been
determined that they exist and are
synthesized in almost every cell of the body.
• They are synthesized in the same cell on
which they act.
Biosynthesis of Prostaglandins
• The goal is to inhibit the biosynthesis of
prostaglandins in order to relieve the
symptoms caused by the inflammatory
response.
• Prostaglandins are synthesized from
arachidonic acid in a pathway mediated by
the Cyclooxygenase enzymes.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs NSAIDs
• three major pharmacologically desirable
actions, stemming from the suppression
of prostanoid synthesis in inflammatory
cells through inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 isoform of the
arachidonic acid COX. They are as follow.
• An anti-inflammatory action: the decrease
in prostaglandin E2 and prostacyclin
reduces vasodilatation and, indirectly,
oedema. Accumulation of inflammatory
cells is not reduced.
• An analgesic effect: decreased
prostaglandin generation means less
sensitisation of nociceptive nerve
endings to inflammatory mediators such
as bradykinin and 5-hydroxytryptamine.
Relief of headache is probably a result of
decreased prostaglandin-mediated
vasodilatation
• An antipyretic effect: interleukin-1
releases prostaglandins in the central
nervous system, where they elevate the
hypothalamic set point for temperature
control, thus causing fever. NSAIDs
prevent this. Some important examples
are aspirin , ibuprofen , naproxen ,
indomethacin, piroxicam and
paracetamol. Newer agents with more
selective inhibition of COX-2 (and thus
fewer adverse effects on the
gastrointestinal tract) include celecoxib
and etoricoxib

General unwanted effects of NSAIDs
• Due to inhibition of the constitutive
housekeeping enzyme cyclo-oxygenase
(COX)-1 isoform of COX, are common,
particularly in the elderly, and include the
following.
• Dyspepsia, nausea and vomiting. Gastric
damage may occur in chronic users, with
risk of haemorrhage. The cause is
suppression of gastroprotective
prostaglandins in the gastric mucosa.
• Skin reactions. Mechanism unknown.
• Reversible renal insufficiency. Seen mainly in
individuals with compromised renal function
when the compensatory prostaglandin E2mediated vasodilatation is inhibited.
• 'Analgesic-associated nephropathy'. This can
occur following long-continued high doses of
NSAIDs (e.g. paracetamol) and is often
irreversible.
• Liver disorders, bone marrow depression.
Relatively uncommon.
• Bronchospasm. Seen in 'aspirin-sensitive'
asthmatics

Clinical uses of NSAIDs
• For analgesia (e.g. headache,
dysmenorrhea, backache, bony
metastases, postoperative pain):
– short-term use: aspirin , paracetamol
or ibuprofen
– chronic pain: more potent, longer
lasting drugs (e.g. diflunisal ,
naproxen , piroxicam )
– to reduce the requirement for narcotic
analgesics (e.g. ketorolac
postoperatively).
• For anti-inflammatory effects (e.g.
rheumatoid arthritis and related
connective tissue disorders, gout and
soft tissue disorders).
– Note that there is substantial individual
variation in clinical response to NSAIDs and
considerable unpredictable patient preference
for one drug rather than another.
• To lower temperature (antipyretic):
paracetamol.
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid)
• is the oldest non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It
acts by irreversibly inactivating both cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2.
• In addition to its anti-inflammatory actions, aspirin
inhibits platelet aggregation, and its main clinical
importance now is in the therapy of myocardial
infarction.
• It is given orally and is rapidly absorbed; 75% is
metabolised in the liver.
• Elimination follows first-order kinetics with low
doses (half-life 4 hours), and saturation kinetics
with high doses (half-life over 15 hours).
• Unwanted effects:
– with therapeutic doses: some gastric bleeding (usually
slight and asymptomatic) is common
– with large doses: dizziness, deafness and tinnitus
('salicylism'); compensated respiratory alkalosis may
occur
– with toxic doses (e.g. from self-poisoning):
uncompensated respiratory acidosis with metabolic
acidosis may occur, particularly in children
– aspirin has been linked with a postviral encephalitis
(Reye's syndrome) in children.
• If given concomitantly with warfarin, aspirin can
cause a potentially hazardous increase in the
risk of bleeding.
Reye’s
• Seen in children under 15 after an acute
viral illness
• Results in encephalopathy, fatty
infiltration of the liver, pancreas, kidneys,
spleen, and lymph nodes
• Cause is unknown
Aspirin in non-inflammatory
conditions
• Aspirin-previously thought of as an old antiinflammatory workhorse-is now approaching the
status of a wonder drug that is of benefit not
only in inflammation, but in an increasing
number of other conditions. These include:
• cardiovascular disorders: through the
antiplatelet action of low-dose aspirin
• colonic and rectal cancer: aspirin (and COX-2
inhibitors) may reduce colorectal cancer-clinical
trial results are awaited
• Alzheimer's disease: again, clinical trial results
are awaited
• radiation-induced diarrhoea.
Paracetamol (Acetaminophen)
• has potent analgesic and antipyretic actions
but rather weaker anti-inflammatory effects
than other NSAIDs. It may act through
inhibition of a CNS -specific (COX) isoform
such as COX-3, although this is not yet
conclusive.
• It is given orally and metabolised in the liver
(half-life 2-4 hours).
• Toxic doses cause nausea and vomiting,
then, after 24-48 hours, potentially fatal
liver damage by saturating normal
conjugating enzymes, causing the drug
to be converted by mixed function
oxidases to N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone
imine. If not inactivated by conjugation
with glutathione, this compound reacts
with cell proteins and kills the cell.
• Agents that increase glutathione (I.V
acetylcysteine or oral methionine ) can
prevent liver damage if given early.
G.I.T Effects of
NSAIDS(Ibuprofen=1)
NSAIDS
• Propionic acid derivatives such as
ibuprofen, ketoprofen (Orudis), naproxen
and fenoprofen (Nalfon)
• Acetic acid derivatives include
indomethacin (Indocin), sulindac
(Clinoril) and tolmetin (Tolectin)---these
drugs have more severe adverse
reactions than the proprionic acid
derivatives
NSAIDS
• IV indomethacin is approved for the tx of
patent ductus arteriosus in premature
infants.
• Remember: patent ductus is a
communication between the pulmonary
artery and the aorta
NSAIDS
• ketoralac is used only for pain. Is the only
NSAID that can be given by injection. Use
limited to 5 days as can cause bleeding.
• Oxicam drugs include meloxacam and
piroxicam
• celecoxib
• Affect bleeding only while drug is still in
the system
Effects of Nonsteroidals on Other
Drugs
• Decrease effects of ACEI, beta blockers
and diuretics
• Affect sodium and water retention
• Inhibit renal prostaglandin synthesis
