Description
Degenerative diseases of the locomotor system are accompanied by inflammation and severe pain. Sometimes, people are not able to get up and must take anti-inflammatory products. Many patients avoid using NSAIDs because they act for a short period and often cause adverse effects. Aleve is a medicine of the new generation which is better tolerated and helps to remove inflammation and pain.
Aleve is a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug of the prolonged action. It contains an active ingredient Naproxen – derived from naphthyl propionic acid. It provides an intense anti-inflammatory, moderate pain-relieving and antifebrile action.
In comparison with popular drugs on the Western market (Tylenol, Advil), Aleve acts longer. If the standard NSAIDs work for just 4-6 hours, a therapeutic effect of Aleve lasts for 8 to 12 hours. Due to this, a general daily dose is reduced and a risk of the development of the side effects in the gastro-intestinal tract is decreased.
The mechanism of the action of Aleve consists in the inhibition of COX enzyme. Blocking this enzyme, prostaglandins are reduced which take part in the formation of the inflammatory process.
An anti-inflammatory effect occurs in 5-7 days after beginning of the treatment. A pain-relieving action appears after the first use of the therapeutic dose of Aleve.
