Tiadenol

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Tiadenol is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used for the treatment of pain and inflammation. It is a derivative of phenylbutazone, and is marketed under various brand names in different countries.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Tiadenol works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals that cause inflammation and pain in the body. It does this by blocking the action of an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (COX), which is responsible for the production of prostaglandins.

Uses[edit | edit source]

Tiadenol is used to relieve pain and inflammation caused by various conditions, including arthritis, gout, muscle sprains and strains, and menstrual cramps. It is also used to reduce fever.

Side Effects[edit | edit source]

Like all NSAIDs, Tiadenol can cause side effects. These can include stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache. In rare cases, it can cause serious side effects such as stomach ulcers, bleeding, kidney problems, and heart attack or stroke.

Precautions[edit | edit source]

Before taking Tiadenol, patients should inform their doctor if they have any allergies, or if they have a history of heart disease, high blood pressure, liver disease, kidney disease, asthma, stomach ulcers or bleeding. It should not be used during the last three months of pregnancy unless specifically directed by a doctor.

Interactions[edit | edit source]

Tiadenol can interact with other medications, including blood thinners, corticosteroids, lithium, and certain antidepressants. Patients should inform their doctor of all the medications they are currently taking before starting treatment with Tiadenol.
