Flurbiprofen, an NSAID, acts on the cyclooxygenase pathway to relieve pain and inflammation.

- Rheumatoid arthritis: reduces joint pain, swelling, and stiffness - Osteoarthritis: alleviates chronic joint discomfort and improves mobility - Acute musculoskeletal pain: provides short‑term relief of pain and inflammation

Flurbiprofen may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to severe.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: mild stomach upset or dyspepsia - Nausea: feeling of queasiness that may lead to vomiting - Headache: mild to moderate pain in the head region - Dizziness: transient sensation of light‑headedness

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe gastrointestinal bleeding: may present as black stools or vomiting blood - Renal impairment: reduced kidney function, especially in at‑risk patients - Allergic skin reactions: such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis

When prescribing flurbiprofen, clinicians should consider several precautionary measures to minimize risk.

- Renal function: monitor in patients with existing kidney disease - Cardiovascular risk: use cautiously in patients with heart disease - Gastrointestinal history: avoid in those with ulcer disease or prior GI bleeding - Concomitant anticoagulants: increased bleeding risk, require close monitoring - Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established; avoid unless essential - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and light

Flurbiprofen can interact with other medicines, influencing its safety and efficacy.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of serious bleeding - Other NSAIDs or COX‑2 inhibitors: additive gastrointestinal toxicity

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors: may reduce renal function when combined - Diuretics: heightened risk of renal impairment - Lithium: NSAIDs may raise lithium serum concentrations
