Naproxen extended-release tablets

Function and Efficacy

1. Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It showed significant anti-inflammatory properties in classic animal experiments. In addition, it has significant analgesic and antipyretic effects, and even in animals with adrenalectomy, it showed anti-inflammatory efficacy, which indicates that this effect is not transmitted through the pituitary adrenal glands. Like other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, it can inhibit prostate synthase, but the true mechanism of its anti-inflammatory effect has not yet been clarified. 2. Absorption, distribution, and elimination: After oral administration, almost all of it is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. Taking one naproxen sustained-release tablet (0.5g) orally per day is equivalent to taking two ordinary tablets (0.25g) orally per day. The area under the blood drug concentration curve (AUC) of the two is equal. Compared with ordinary tablets, it has a longer peak time and a lower peak concentration. More than 99% of naproxen at therapeutic doses is bound to serum albumin, and 95% is excreted in the urine in the form of original form, 6-0-desmethyl naproxen and its conjugated compounds.
