Medicine Description ketogesic 50mg
Ketogesic 50mg Capsule is a medication that belongs to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Its primary action is the inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which play a crucial role in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are lipid compounds that mediate inflammation, pain, and fever. By blocking these enzymes, ketoprofen effectively reduces the production of prostaglandins, thereby alleviating pain and diminishing inflammation in various tissues. This mechanism makes it beneficial in managing symptoms associated with a range of inflammatory and painful conditions.
