نویسنده
چکیده
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most widely used of all therapeutic agents. Although they are effective analgesics they do have significant adverse side-effects.

An NSAID should therefore be chosen on the basis of the incidence of associated side-effects.
