Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs

  • Chapter

The discovery and commercialization of asprin over 100 years ago, and the introduction of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have had a profound impact on the practice of medicine and the treatment of the inflammatory conditions. Widespread access and over-the-counter availability of these agents has lead to the impression that these drugs are safe and relatively void of toxicity. NSAID use can pose substantial risks to patients, especially when used chronically. Gastrointestinal (GI) complications associated with NSAID use are the most common serious adverse drug reaction reported in the United States. Additionally, aspirin is extensively used as an anti-platelet agent, as well as an analgesic agent. Aspirin, as well as other non-specific NSAID’s have a demonstrated risk of gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
