Infree (CAT: I029363) is a prodrug of indomethacin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Indomethacin is known for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties. Infree is specifically designed to undergo enzymatic conversion into indomethacin after administration, allowing for targeted delivery and improved pharmacokinetics. As an NSAID, Infree works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for inflammation and pain.
