An insight of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug mefenamic acid: A review

Abstract: This review focuses on the design, synthesis and pharmacological effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) mefenamic acid which is an anthranilic acid derivative. Mefenamic acid is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used to treat pain, including menstrual pain. Exploitation of the prodrug approach has the potential to achieve a reduction of mefenamic acid GI (gastrointestinal) intolerance, enhance its bioavailability, mask its unpleasant sensation and prolong its duration of action. Mefenamic aci… Show more

“…Hasil penelitian dari (Srivastava et al, 2019) juga mendukung hasil yang diperoleh yang mejelaskan bahwa waktu paruh biologis asam mefenamat yang pendek adalah 2 jam. Karena waktu paruh yang singkat, dosis oral diperlukan untuk pemberian obat yang sering untuk mempertahankan tingkat keadaan yang diinginkan.…”

“…Mefenamic acid is a commercial non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drug (NSAID) and its COX‐2 inhibition activities have already been established . The NSAID binding site of COX‐2 is a long hydrophobic channel, which prompted us to synthesize the G ‐ A ‐ M molecules using amino acids having hydrophobic side chains and protected glucopyranose residue for better recognition.…”

“…The pathophysiological functions of MA are implemented by its ability to inhibit the biosynthesis of prostaglandin involved in pathogen diseases. MA is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, sports injuries, gastrointestinal disorders, primary dysmenorrhea muscle pain, back pain, and dental pain [2][3][4][5]. As MA works on cyclooxygenase (COX) pathways and suppresses prostaglandin, the sensations of pain are momentarily lessened.…”
