Metabolite Identification
Common NameFenoprofen
DescriptionFenoprofen, also known as nalfon or nalgesic, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as diphenylethers. These are aromatic compounds containing two benzene rings linked to each other through an ether group. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, the dihydrate form of the calcium salt is used for the management of mild to moderate pain and for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with disorders such as arthritis. Fenoprofen is a drug which is used for relief of the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. also for the relief of mild to moderate pain. Fenoprofen is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). In humans, fenoprofen is involved in fenoprofen action pathway. A monocarboxylic acid that is propanoic acid in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 3-phenoxyphenyl group. It is pharmacologically similar to aspirin, but causes less gastrointestinal bleeding.
