Antiphlogistics
An anti-inflammatory drug is a drug that inhibits inflammatory processes. Since inflammation is a complex, biochemical process, anti-inflammatory drugs intervene in the inflammatory process at very different points.
Anti-inflammatory drugs are active substances that inhibit inflammation. Anti-inflammatory drugs include substances produced by the body, such as cortisone, but also artificially produced active substances such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The latter are also called non-steroidal anti-rheumatic drugs (NSAIDs).
