Description
Etoricoxib (Arcoxia, MK-663, MK-0663, Tauxib, Algix, Nucoxia) is a new selective inhibitor with anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic, and potential antineoplastic properties.
In vivo
The preferential cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor etoricoxib significantly reduces the anticonvulsant action of phenytoin and significantly increases the beneficial action of diazepam against maximal electroshock and pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsions in a mouse model. Etoricoxib has the potential to act as an anti-apoptotic and anti- proliferative agent in the colon.
