Aspirin is in a group of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Once aspirin is dissolved into the bloodstream it attaches to an enzyme called COX-2. COX-2 produces chemicals called prostaglandins that allow your body to feel pain. Aspirin prevents prostaglandins from working. Aspirin is also used to prevent heart attaches and prevent blood clots from forming. (4) Lidocaine is known as a local anaesthetic drug. Lidocaine works by easily binding and blocking the fast voltage

only one isomer is effective (the S isomer) in treating pain. Ibuprofen works by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (abbreviated COX). The COX enzyme converts certain fatty acids to prostaglandins‚ molecules with important functions in the human body. The prostaglandins at the end of the "chain" of reactions that starts with the COX enzyme cause an increased sensitivity to pain‚ fever‚ and vasodilation (increased blood flow or inflammation).

is not completely clear to the sciences‚ but that with time will change. One thing we do know is that people who have allergies to Aspirin should not take this medicine. (2) As of now we know that it may play a role in prostaglandin synthesis inhibition. (1) Prostaglandin are hormonal like substances that form in animal tissue from polly unsaturated fatty-acids.
