Roles Classification
Biological Role:
cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor  A cyclooxygenase inhibitor that interferes with the action of cyclooxygenase 2.
Application:
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug  An anti-inflammatory drug that is not a steroid. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins.
