Product Description
Oxaprozin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) under consideration for approval by the Food and Drug Administration, is characterized as a propionic acid. By inhibiting cyclo-oxygenase, oxaprozin decreases the formation of prostaglandin (PG) precursors from arachidonic acid, resulting in decreased PG biosynthesis and reduced pain and inflammatory responses.
