@princepumulo: From Mechanism to Clinical Decision: NSAIDs Simplified 💊 One of the most common mistakes in clinical practice is choosing an NSAID based only on familiarity rather than understanding its pharmacology. A solid understanding of COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition helps explain: Why some NSAIDs have a higher risk of gastrointestinal adverse effects. Why selective COX-2 inhibitors may be preferred in specific patients. Why efficacy, safety, and patient comorbidities should always guide drug selection. I created this simplified infographic to provide a quick visual overview of NSAID classification and their mechanisms of action. It's designed as a revision tool for pharmacy students, interns, and healthcare professionals. Remember: > Don't just memorize the drug. Understand the mechanism. Clinical decisions become much easier when the science is clear. What is your preferred NSAID for managing acute musculoskeletal pain, and why? I'd love to hear your perspective in the comments. #Pharmacy #ClinicalPharmacy #Pharmacology #NSAIDs #MedicalEducation
