How It Works

Inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis.

Mechanism Steps

1Diclofenac inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, specifically COX-1 and COX-2.
2COX-1 is constitutively expressed and produces prostaglandins involved in gastric protection, platelet aggregation, and renal function.
3COX-2 is induced by inflammation and produces prostaglandins that mediate pain, fever, and inflammation.
