CAS 61-68-7: Mefenamic acid

Description:Mefenamic acid is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) primarily used to treat mild to moderate pain, including menstrual pain, and to reduce inflammation. It is classified as an anthranilic acid derivative and is known for its analgesic and antipyretic properties. The chemical formula of mefenamic acid is C15H15NO2, and it features a carboxylic acid group, which contributes to its pharmacological activity. Mefenamic acid is typically administered orally and is absorbed well in the gastrointestinal tract. Its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, leading to a decrease in the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are mediators of pain and inflammation. The substance is characterized by its relatively low solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal discomfort, dizziness, and potential cardiovascular risks with long-term use. As with all NSAIDs, it is important to use mefenamic acid under medical supervision to mitigate risks and ensure appropriate dosing.
