PHARMACODYNAMICS:
Analgesic action: It may block pain impulse generation via a
peripheral action which may involve inhibition of the
synthesis of prostaglandins, and possibly inhibition of the synthesis
or action of other substances which sensitise pain
receptors to mechanical or chemical stimulation.
Anti-inflammatory action: It may act peripherally in inflamed tissue,
probably by inhibiting the synthesis of
prostaglandins and possibly by inhibiting the synthesis and/or actions
of other local mediators of the inflammatory
response.
PHARMACOKINETICS:
Mefenamic Acid is absorbed from the GIT. Peak concentrations on the
circulation occur about 2 hours after ingestion.
Mefenamic Acid is extensively bound to plasma proteins. Approximately
50% of a dose may be recovered in the urine
within 48 hours, mainly as conjugated metabolites.
