Naproxen sodium has strong anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Its main biological effects are: (1) inhibiting the activity of prostaglandin synthase, so as to reduce the permeability of capillary chemicalbook; (2) Reduce the production of peroxides by macrophages and play an anti-inflammatory role; (3) Stimulate T cell activity; (4) Reduce pain sensitivity.
It is a kind of NSAID, for ease common and severe pain, fever, inflammation, and by rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, menstrual cramps, tendonitis, slippery bursa phlogistic wait for disease caused by ankylosing reaction, also has therapeutic effect for menstrual disorders.
