Drugs acting to stop pain and inflammation

Drugs acting to stop pain and inflammation
Pain, inflammation and fever is mainly triggered by Autacoids
The major autacoids involved in pain, fever and inflammation are
histamines and
prostaglandins

Autacoids
The word autacoids comes from the Greek "Autos" (self) and "Acos" (relief, i.e. drug).
Autacoids are biological factors which act like local hormones, have a brief duration, act near the site of synthesis, and are not blood borne

Introduction
Agents that may induce release of autacoids include- Chemical irritants- UV light- Trauma- bacterial toxins- immune irritants

Major classes of autacoids
Biogenic AminesHistamineSerotonin (5 HT)
Class Example
Phospholipids Derived
Prostaglandins (Eicosanoids) , leukotrienes, Thromboxanes, Platelet activating factors(PAF)
PolypeptidesAngiotensin and Kinins (Bradykinin and Kallikidin)

Stopping pain, fever and inflammation
There are two main groups of pain killers
-Autacoids antagonists
-CNS acting nerve blockers (alpha 2 adrenergic drugs)
Autacoids antagonists
Antihistamines
ProstaglandinSynthesis inhibitors

Antihistamines (Antagonists)
Antihistamines act by blocking histamine receptors
There are four Histamine receptors designated as H1 H2, H3, and H4, each with different function
Only H1 is involved with pain All Histamines antagonists are
competitive blockers of histamine receptors

Histamine Receptors blockers
UIThioperamideH4 blockers

Non-Steroidal AntiinflammatoryDrugs (NSAIDs)
These are basically prostaglandin (PG) synthesis inhibitors
Remember that prostaglandin is an autacoid that will engineer pain stimuli

Common PG synthesis inhibitors
Aspirin Acetaminophen Phenylbutazone Dipyrone

Morden NSAIDs
Naproxen Flunixin meglumine (banamine) Meclofenamic acid Ibuprofein and indomethacin Orgotein Dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) Polysulfated glycosaminoglycans
(Adequan)

Mechanisms of Action of NSAIDs
Binding (reversibly and irreversibly) to cyclo-oxygenase (PG synthase)
- Aspirin – I rreversibly- Acetaminophen – reversibly- Phenylbutazone – I rreversibly- Dipyron- I rreversibly- Naproxein – I rreversibly- Flunixin – I rreversibly- Meclofenamic acid - I rreversibly

Mechanisms of Action of NSAIDs
Other mechanismsOrgotein – Breaks down superoxidefree radicals to peroxides
DMSO – I t also trap free radicals like superoxides
Adequan – Inhibits the loss of cartilaginous mucopolysaccharides
