Adverse effects associated with the use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs: An overview

Abstract: The nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs are among the most widely prescribed and used drugs in the community for rheumatologic as well as nonrheumatologic conditions, which include acute and chronic pain; biliary, ureteric colic; dysmenorrhoea; fever; and other applications that derive from the suppression of prostaglandin synthesis. Almost all nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs irritate gastric mucosa and enhance ulceration by blocking protective action of the prostaglandins on gastric mucosa, causing ulcer … Show more

“…The use of NSAIDs is the second most common cause of ulcers and the rate of NSAID-caused ulcers is increasing (Ibrahim et al 2007;Hawkey (1990); Derle et al 2006). Famotidine is H 2 -receptor antagonist widely prescribed in the gastric ulcers, duodenal ulcers, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and gastro-esophageal reflux disease.…”

“…Among the mediators that regulate the events of inflammation, vasoactive amines, lipid-derived eicosanoids, cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules have been highlighted (Silva, 2015). On the other hand, the inflammatory pain has been treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, but present high prevalence among adverse reactions to drugs (Derle et al, 2006). However, natural products, as flavonoids, have been investigated for their mechanisms against painful, inflammatory and oxidative processes (Agrawal, 2011;Iwalewa et al, 2007).…”

“…The drugs used for adulteration include (1) steroids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, allergy and asthma; [1,2,4 -29] (2) PDE-5 inhibitors for sexual dysfunction; [27,30 -35] (3) sibutramine as anorectic; [36 -38] and (4) sulfonylureas (chlorpropamide, tolbutamide and glibenclamide) in antidiabetic formulations. [41,42] Adulteration of AHPs with steroids and NSAIDs has been reported mostly from China, Singapore, Pakistan, South Africa and India. [2,4,27] The most commonly found steroidal adulterants include dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, prednisolone, betamethasone, cortisone and triamcinolone and the NSAIDs used include diclofenac, mefenamic acid, indomethacin, paracetamol, phenacetin and phenylbutazone.…”

“…[40] On the other hand, adverse reactions such as dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting, gastric damage with risk of haemorrhage, skin reactions, reversible renal insufficiency, nephropathy (mainly with paracetamol) and bone marrow depression are the risk factors associated with the use of NSAIDs. [41,42] Adulteration of AHPs with steroids and NSAIDs has been reported mostly from China, Singapore, Pakistan, South Africa and India. [2,3,5,7 -10,12,14 -16,18,19,23,25 -29] The methods used for detection of adulteration have been based on medical symptoms or analytical approaches such as UV colorimetry, TLC, HPLC and LC-MS. Adulteration of animal food products and environmental water samples with steroids and NSAIDs has been reviewed.…”
