Fenoprofen API Suppliers - Manufacturers and Distributors

API Description: Fenoprofen is a monocarboxylic acid that is propanoic acid in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 3-phenoxyphenyl group. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, the dihydrate form of the calcium salt is used for the management of mild to moderate pain and for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with disorders such as arthritis. It is pharmacologically similar to aspirin, but causes less gastrointestinal bleeding. It has a role as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a non-narcotic analgesic, an antipyretic, a cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, a cyclooxygenase 1 inhibitor and a drug allergen. It is a conjugate acid of a fenoprofen(1-). An anti-inflammatory analgesic and antipyretic highly bound to plasma proteins. It is pharmacologically similar to aspirin, but causes less gastrointestinal bleeding. Fenoprofen is a Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug. The mechanism of action of fenoprofen is as a Cyclooxygenase Inhibitor. Fenoprofen is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) used in the treatment of mild-to-moderate pain and arthritis. Fenoprofen has been linked to a low rate of serum enzyme elevations during therapy and to rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury. Fenoprofen is a propionic acid derivative with analgesic, non-steroidal antiinflammatory and antirheumatic properties. Fenoprofen inhibits both isozymes of cyclooxygenase; resulting in prostaglandin synthesis inhibition, thereby blocking the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. In addition, fenoprofen activates both peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPAR)-alpha and -gamma, by which it may down-regulate leukotriene B4 production. A propionic acid derivative that is used as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent.
