It is used as a anti-inflammatory; analgesic and an antipyretic drug cause the hypothalamus to override an interleukin-induced increase in temperature. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins.

The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
