These include: The duration of action (i.e., duration of pain relief) of a single dose is longer (6 to 8 h ) than the drug's 1.2–2 h half-life. This could be partly because it persists for over 11 hours in synovial fluids . Diclofenac
3060-498: The primary mechanism responsible for its anti-inflammatory , antipyretic and analgesic action is thought to be inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis through COX -inhibition. The main target in the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis appears to be the transiently expressed prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase-2 (PGES-2), also known as cycloxygenase-2 (COX-2). That is, diclofenac is partially selective for COX-2. The reported selectivity for COX-2 varies from 1.5 to 30 depending on

It is more expensive than diclofenac, but the cost is dropping as more pharmaceutical companies are beginning to manufacture it. Steppe eagles have the same vulnerability to diclofenac as Old World vultures and are therefore at a similar risk from its effects. Diclofenac has been shown also to harm freshwater fish species such as rainbow trout. In contrast, New World vultures , such as
