Description

Vestitol is a synthetic, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities. It is a potent inhibitor of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, specifically COX-2, which are key mediators of inflammation. The compound's mechanism of action involves the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing inflammation and pain. Vestitol has been studied for its potential therapeutic use in various inflammatory conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease. However, it has not yet been approved for clinical use, and further research is needed to evaluate its safety and efficacy in humans.'
