What is Flurbiprofen?
Flurbiprofen is a generic prescription drug for treating moderate pain due to osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. It is available as a brand-name medication, Ansaid, from Pfizer.
Osteoarthritis is due to the deterioration of the cartilage in large bone joints, particularly the knees. As the cartilage wears away, normal movement causes injury in the knee tissues, which causes the body to respond as it would to any injury, by releasing chemicals that cause swelling, which in turn causes pain and stiffness in the joint.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a condition in which the immune system attacks tissues in the joints as if they were an infection. The immune system starts with an “inflammatory response” in which it releases chemicals that cause swelling, which in turn causes pain and stiffness in the joints.
Flurbiprofen belongs to a class of medications called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that work by blocking inflammatory substances, and so relieves the pain and stiffness in the joints. Flurbiprofen is administered as a capsule or tablet.
