Research Excerpts

Overview

ExcerptReference
"Firocoxib is a specific cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor and has the ability to act in the uterus of mares."( Alvarenga, MA; Correal, SB; Cyrino, M; Dell'Aqua, JA; Freitas-Dell'Aqua, CP; Friso, AM; Miró, J; Papa, FO; Segabinazzi, LGTM; Teoro do Carmo, M, 2019)
"Firocoxib is a COX-2-selective inhibitor that blocks the biochemical activity of COX-2."( Abramo, F; Albanese, F; Caporali, C; Millanta, F; Vichi, G, 2013)
"Firocoxib is a potent COX-2 inhibitor and is the only selective COX-2 inhibitor described for use in cats to date. "( Black, WC; Brideau, C; Cunningham, PK; Hickey, GJ; Hora, DF; McCann, ME; Rickes, EL; Zhang, D, 2005)
"Firocoxib is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with more than 350-fold selectivity in dogs for the inducible isoform of the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase-2."( Fleishman, C; Hanson, PD; Pollmeier, M; Toulemonde, C, 2006)

Treatment

ExcerptReference
"Firocoxib treatment prior to induction of arthritis in dogs resulted in a high level of analgesia from the first post-treatment assessment at 1.5 h through 24 h post-treatment. "( Beugnet, F; de Salazar Alcalá, AG; Dehman, A; Gioda, L, 2019)
"Firocoxib treatment was discontinued, and immunosuppressive therapy including cyclosporine was initiated, which significantly alleviated the skin lesions."( Geum, M; Kim, HJ; Ko, HY; Na, YJ, 2021)
"Firocoxib treatment did not induce ovulatory failure or affect embryo recovery rate in Experiment 1."( Alvarenga, MA; Correal, SB; Cyrino, M; Dell'Aqua, JA; Freitas-Dell'Aqua, CP; Friso, AM; Miró, J; Papa, FO; Segabinazzi, LGTM; Teoro do Carmo, M, 2019)
"The firocoxib treatment group performed significantly better than placebo at the 3 h post-treatment time point and significantly better than placebo and carprofen at the 7 h post-treatment time point."( Hanson, PD; Hazewinkel, HA; Pollmeier, M; Theyse, LF; van den Brom, WE, 2008)

Roles (4)

RoleDescription
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugAn anti-inflammatory drug that is not a steroid. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins.
cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitorA cyclooxygenase inhibitor that interferes with the action of cyclooxygenase 2.
antineoplastic agentA substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
non-narcotic analgesicA drug that has principally analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory actions. Non-narcotic analgesics do not bind to opioid receptors.
