DescriptionFlufenamic acid (FFA), namely N-(alpha,alpha,alpha-trifluorom-tolyl) anthranilic acid (CI-440), is an aromatic amino acid consisting of anthranilic acid carrying an N-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl substituent. It is an effective drug in the treatment of special types of migraine. Its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects were recognized in the 1960s (Winder et al., 1963) and thus FFA is included in the family of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with mefenamic, meclofenamic (MFA) and niflumic acids (NA). Anti-inflammatory actions occur mainly through reduction of prostaglandin synthesis from arachidonic acid by inhibiting the cyclo-oxygenases.

UsesFlufenamic acid is used for moderate pain and dysmenorrhea, but it should not be used for more than 1 week due to the possibility of nephrotoxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, and anemia. It is frequently used in combination with the anticoagulant warfarin, the effect of which is strengthened when combined with flufenamic acid.

UsesAn NSAID found to be a reversible gap junction blocker

DefinitionChEBI: flufenamic acid is an aromatic amino acid consisting of anthranilic acid carrying an N-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl substituent. An analgesic and anti-inflammatory, it is used in rheumatic disorders. It has a role as an EC 1.14.99.1 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase) inhibitor, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a non-narcotic analgesic and an antipyretic. It is an aromatic amino acid and an organofluorine compound. It derives from a diphenylamine, an anthranilic acid and a (trifluoromethyl)benzene. It is a conjugate acid of a flufenamate.
