Hypersensitivity to five non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents: ibuprofen, fenoprofen, indomethacin, naproxen and tolmetin. 1978

E W Fisherman, and G N Cohen

Five drugs promoted generally as safe substitutes for aspirin-sensitive individuals (ASA) were studied. All five were found capable of causing exacerbation of symptoms and increase of induced bleeding time in ASA patients with concomitant low iodide tolerance, and four of the five drugs gave positive reactions in patients tolerant to ASA but iodide intolerant.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they 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. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
