Chlonixin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It works by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme, thereby reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are mediators of pain and inflammation. Chlonixin is primarily used to alleviate symptoms associated with musculoskeletal pain and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis. Its ability to reduce pain and inflammation makes it a valuable option in managing mild to moderate inflammatory conditions, with a mechanism similar to other NSAIDs.
