The results showed that the compounds studied with more frequency in the aquatic environment, and of which, logically, there is more information, are the antibiotics, analgesics and anti-inflammatories (like diclofenac, ibuprofen, naproxen, acetylsalicylic acid, and paracetamol), as well as the p-blocker atenolol. In the category of antibiotics, several families are included, like the macrolides (erythromycin), the fluoroquinolones (ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin), sulfonamides (sulfamethoxazole), penicillins (amoxicillin), the metronidazol, and trimethoprim. Other therapeutic groups also widely studied and frequently found in the environmental waters are the lipid regulators (gemfibrozil and bezafibrat), antiepileptic carbamaze-pine, and antidepressants (diazepam, fluoxetine, paroxetine) (see Table 3). 

Acetyls alley lie acid was shown to prevent cirrhosis under certain experimental conditions [125]. Naproxen and indomethacin partially protected against LPS and D-galactosamine-in-duced hepatotoxicity [126] Acetylsalicylic acid and ibuprofen were also protective in endo-toxic shock [127]. Endotoxaemia is one of the complications in cirrhotic patients [128] and is probably caused by an impaired ability of the liver to take up and detoxify gut-derived LPS [116]. The presence of portosystemic shunts in cirrhotic patients may also contribute to this spill-over of LPS into the systemic circulation [129]. NSAIDs, however, are also reported to provoke deleterious effects on renal function in cirrhosis [130], and can therefore not be used in cirrhotic patients. Cell-specific delivery of NSAIDs to SECs and/or KCs may make application of these drugs in cirrhosis feasible by circumventing the renal side-effects. 

Acetaminophen, the amphiphilic acids acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), ibuprofen, and others, as well as some pyrazolone derivatives, such as aminopyrine and dipyrone, are grouped under the label antipyretic analgesics to distinguish them from opioid analgesics, because they share the ability to reduce fever.

Most of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are carboxylic acids. Aspirin (8.69) (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA) has been used since the turn of the last century to reduce pain and fever, but the parent compound, salicylic acid, has been known and used since antiquity, owing to its common occurrence as a glycoside in willow bark. Acetylation merely decreases its irritating effect. Among the numerous other salicylates known and used, flufenisal (8.70) has a longer duration of activity and fewer side effects than aspirin. Mefenamic acid (8.71) and flufenamic acid (8.72) are derivatives of anthranilic acid, while ibuprofen (8.73) and naproxen (8.74) are derivatives of phenylacetic and naphthylacetic acids, respectively. 

Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) include, among the numerous agents of this class, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid), the arylacetic acids indomethacin and sulindac, and the arylpropionic acids, tS)-<8) and (/ )-(9) ibuprofen, (S)-(10) and (/ )-(11), flurbiprofen naproxen, and fenoprofen.

The drug acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) irreversibly inhibits the cyclooxygenase activity, while ibuprofen inhibits the reductase activity. Both drugs treat inflammation, pain, and fever because they inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. Prostaglandins are very unstable, so they tend to act locally (otherwise a sprained ankle would cause pain throughout the body).

A century after its introduction, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is by far the most commonly used analgesic, sharing its leading position with the relative newcomer paracetamol (acetaminophen), and notwithstanding the fact that other widely used compounds of their class, like ibuprofen and naproxen, have in recent years been introduced in over-the-counter versions. Both are also still being prescribed by physicians and are generally used for mild to moderate pain, fever associated with... 

The FDA has announced its intention to require alcohol warnings on all over-the-counter pain medications that contain acetylsalicylic acid, salicylates, paracetamol, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, or naproxen. The proposed warnings are aimed at alerting consumers to the specific risks incurred from heavy alcohol consumption and its interaction with analgesics. For products...

Some medications such as salicylates are anti-inflammatory medications that fall within all three categories. The most commonly used salicylate is aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA). Others fall into one or two categories such as propionic acid, which is an analgesic, antipyretic. The most common of these is ibuprofen. 

The inhibitors of COX enzymes are called nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that are prescribed to relieve pain and fever. They stop prostaglandin and thromboxane production. Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) was used for this for many years and it was eventually discovered to acetylate a serine residue involved in the dioxygenase action of cyclooxygenases. A second class of NSAIDs, typified by ibuprofen (commonly called Advil or Motrin), inhibits catalysis by attaching irreversibly to cyclooxygenases. Aspirin and ibuprofen inhibit all prostaglandin and thromboxane synthesis. 

Active substances, e.g. many analgetics, behave very differently with Ludipress when the dosage is extremely high, Acetylsalicylic acid and metamizole can be pressed when little Ludipress has been added ibuprofen requires a larger amount and the fraction of Ludipress required in the tablets is too large for paracetamol (= acetaminophen).

All compounds of the test dataset are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and are thus relatively similar in terms of their pharmacological properties (Fig. 18). The compounds are 1, acetylsalicylic acid 2, diclofenac 3, flufe-namic acid 4, flubiprofen 5, ibuprofen 6, indometacin 7, ketoprofen 8, meclofe-namic acid 9, mefenamic acid 10, naproxen 11, piroxicam 12, sulindac sulfide (active metabolite of sulindac) 13, tenoxicam 14, meloxicam 15, cgp 28238 16, DuP-697 17, L-745-337 18, 6-methoxy-2-naphthylacetic acid (active metabolite of nabumeton) 19, NS-389 20, SC 58125. 

It is now a well-known fact that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents such as acetylsalicylic acid, indomethacin, and ibuprofen are potent, irreversible inhibitors of fatty acid cyclooxygenase. Furthermore, significant evidence has appeared in the literature that indicates that steroidal antiinflammatory agents may prevent the release of arachidonic acid from the more complex lipids to which it is normally attached.
