| | Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The most prominent members of this group of drugs are aspirin and ibuprofen. | | | Certain NSAIDs, such as aspirin, have been marketed in enteric-coated formulations which are claimed to reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal ADRs. | | | With the aging of the Baby Boomer generation and the associated rise in the incidence of osteoarthritis and other such conditions for which NSAIDs are indicated, the use of NSAIDs may increase further still. |

| | Anti-inflammatories (Non-steroidal) |
| | In rheumatoid arthritis even though the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are useful in controlling the pain and stiffness, they probably do not affect some of the other features of the arthritis, particularly the possibility of developing erosions or cysts in the bones. | | | Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are used for most types of arthritis and for many other types of pain that can occur in muscles, joints and bones. | | | This is the group of drugs most widely used in the treatment of arthritis. |

| | NSAIDs can be used as simple pain killers (analgesics), but paracetamol is usually preferable, as it is likely to have less unwanted effects, and costs less. | | | As a result of this side-effect they cannot be used in someone with a history of peptic ulcer, except in exceptional circumstances, under close medical supervision. | | | If this happens you should stop the drug, and use your usual asthma medication, calling the doctor if this does not work. |
