4. • IMPORTANCE OF INFLAMMATION
• DEFINITION OF INFLAMMATION
As per Ebert & Grant “Inflammation is a
process that begins following sub lethal
injury to tissue and ends with permanent
destruction of tissue or with complete
healing”.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
5. FUNDAMENTAL EVENTS IN
INFLAMMATION
1. Increased permeability of the micro
vasculature.
2. Accumulation and activation of
Leucocytes.

INFLAMMATORY PROCESS

8. HOW NSAIDS WORKS
• Interfering with cycloxygenase pathway
• Process begins with AA-a dietary 20 carbon poly
unsaturated fatty acid obtained from animal fat
• AA is liberated from membrane phospholipids by the
action of phospholipase A2.
• Free AA is metabolically transformed through either
cycloxygenase or lipoxygenase pathway
• When AA is enzymatically oxidized by cycloxygenase it
forms unstable intermediates(PGG2 and PGH2) leading to
prostanoid synthesis
• By the action of lipoxygenase,AA forms leukotrienes
• This process is referred to as arachidonic acid cascade

15. SALICYLATES
ASPIRIN
ACTIONS:- 1
i. Analgesic, Anti- pyretic and Anti-inflammatory.
ii. Weaker analgesic than morphine type drugs.
iii. Analgesic action is mainly due to obtunding of
peripheral pain receptors and prevention of PG
mediated sensitization of nerve endings.
iv. It resets the hypothalamic thermostat and rapidly
reduces fever by promoting heat loss but does not
decrease heat production.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. 2. Aspirin and released Salicylic acid irritates
gastric mucosa – causes epigastric distress,
nausea, vomiting.
3. It interferes with platelet aggregation and
bleeding time is prolonged to nearly twice the
normal.
- Absorbed from stomach and small intestine.
- Slowly enters brain and freely crosses placenta.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Contraindications to the use of
Aspirin and other salicylates:
• Disease state
1 Ulcer
2 Asthama
3 Diabetes
Possible adverse effect
Internal Bleeding,possible
hemorrhage
Asthmatic attack
resembling allergic
reaction.
low doses may cause
hyperglycemia .
high doses may cause
www.indiandentalacademy.com
hypoglycemia.
19. Adverse effects:
1. Analgesic dose – nausea, vomiting, epigastric
distress and increased blood loss in stools.
2. Hypersensitivity and Idiosyncrasy.
3. Inflammatory doses- produce syndrome called ‘
Salicylism’ .
4. Acute Salicylate poisoning more common in
children causes vomiting, dehydration ,
electrolyte imbalance, delirium,
hallucinations,convulsions, and death.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. USES
1. Analgesic- for headache, backache, myalgia,
joint pain, neuralgias,etc.low dose .3 to .6 gm
sixth hourly.
2. Antipyretic- effective in fever of any origin.
3. Acute rheumatic fever- It is the first drug to be
used in all cases.
4. Rheumatoid arthritis- It is the first drug to be
tried.Produces relief of pain, swelling, and
morning stiffness.
5. Other conditions: Osteoarthritis, post myocardial
infarction and post stroke patients.
