Essential insights
- Inhibition of Prostaglandin Synthesis: Ketoprofen inhibits the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme responsible for the production of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins mediate pain, inflammation, and fever.
- Analgesic and Antipyretic Effect: By reducing prostaglandin synthesis, ketoprofen alleviates pain and inflammation while also reducing fever.
- Selective Toxicity: Ketoprofen primarily targets inflammatory pathways and has limited effects on healthy tissues, minimizing side effects.
