Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been in use for many years and constitute a large part of prescriptions issued in daily practice. Although NSAIDs are used for many diseases in neurology, they have also been tested as a new therapeutic option for various other diseases. While their effects on headache and cerebrovascular diseases are well known, little is known about their impact on neurodegenerative diseases. This review discusses the use, effects and safety of NSAIDs in neurological diseases.

Heart failure (HF) is a major contributor to hospitalisations and accounts for 7% of cardiovascular-related deaths, with patients who have chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes at heightened risk. Existing treatment guidelines inadequately address these comorbidities. Steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are commonly used in HF with reduced ejection fraction but pose risks, such as hyperkalaemia and acute kidney injury.

This review examines the cardiovascular risks associated with the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), both traditional NSAIDs and cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitors (COXIBs). It describes the history of traditional NSAIDs and the development of COXIBs to explain why their cardiovascular side effects were unnoticed for many decades. Further, the review presents the mechanism of action of NSAIDs, to elucidate the possible underlying basis for why they are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

The present study describes the use of the di--butyl dicarbonate (BocO)/4-(,-dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) system for the amidation of carboxylic acids under neat conditions without heating. A set of carboxylic acids was explored, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), fatty acids and protected prolines in the presence of aromatic, benzylic and aliphatic amines as nucleophilic partners. The scope of this easy approach was extended to the preparation of thirty-two diverse carboxylic amides, which were recovered with isolated yields varying from moderate to excellent.

Objective: To develop and validate a prognostic model for risk-stratified monitoring of 5-aminosalicylate nephrotoxicity.
Methods: This UK retrospective cohort study used data from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink Aurum and Gold for model development and validation respectively. It included adults newly diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease and established on 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) treatment between 1 January 2007 and 31 December 2019.

Objectives: Comorbidity with other conditions is common in functional bowel disorders. We aimed to investigate the prescription patterns of commonly used drugs in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional unspecific bowel disorder, compared to the general population.
Material And Methods: Prescriptions of commonly used drugs in 2022 were compared between patients and the general population from the same age group and region in Sweden.
