Flurbiprofen

Drug Details

Flurbiprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) primarily used to alleviate pain, swelling, and stiffness caused by rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) in adults. Additionally, it can be effective in relieving pain from dental procedures, menstrual cramps, and muscle aches. Flurbiprofen operates by inhibiting the production of certain natural substances in the body that lead to inflammation, thus helping to reduce swelling and pain. It is available in tablet form and is typically taken in divided doses 2 to 4 times daily. Common side effects may include stomach pain, constipation or diarrhea, and nausea. Always consult a healthcare professional before using this medication or any other treatments for your condition.
