Pain medication should be based on patient's needs and risk profile. Age > 65 years, prior ulcer, co-morbidities, large daily dose, Helicobacter pylori infection, concurrent use of glucocorticoids, serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, or warfarin increase the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeds. As a preventive strategy the use of concurrent proton pump inhibitors with non-selective NSAIDs is recommended. It is also possible to use COX-2 selective NSAIDs but they are contraindicated for persons with atherosclerotic diseases and special consideration is required for persons with risk factors of heart diseases. Paracetamol is the drug of choice for pain.

Chemical mechanisms describe the atmospheric transformations of organic and inorganic species and connect air emissions to secondary species such as ozone, fine particles, and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) like formaldehyde. Recent advances in our understanding of several chemical systems and shifts in the drivers of atmospheric chemistry warrant updates to mechanisms used in chemical transport models such as the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system. This work builds on the Regional Atmospheric Chemistry Mechanism version 2 (RACM2) and develops the Community Regional Atmospheric Chemistry Multiphase Mechanism (CRACMM) version 1.
