Diclofenac molecule

Diclofenac. Computer molecular model of diclofenac (molecular formula: C14.H11.Cl2.N.O2), a non- steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is composed of carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), oxygen (red), chlorine (green) and nitrogen (blue). Although the exact mechanism of action is not understood, it is thought that diclofenac prevents the synthesis of prostaglandin by inhibition of the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase, and this leads to the drugs anti-inflammatory, painkilling properties

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Diclofenac, a widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). The computer-generated model vividly depicts the composition of this pharmaceutical compound, with carbon atoms represented in grey, hydrogen in white, oxygen in red, chlorine in green, and nitrogen in blue. Diclofenac's mechanism of action remains partially elusive; however, it is believed to impede the synthesis of prostaglandin by inhibiting the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase. This inhibition ultimately results in its remarkable anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. The image not only highlights the structural beauty of this molecule but also emphasizes its significance within pharmacology and medicine. Its role as an inhibitor makes it a valuable asset for treating various conditions associated with inflammation and pain. With applications ranging from analgesics to pharmaceutics, Diclofenac has become synonymous with brand names like Voltaren, Cataflam, and Voltarol. Despite being widely recognized for its therapeutic benefits worldwide, it is important to note that this caption does not endorse any commercial use or promote any specific company. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured both the scientific essence and aesthetic appeal of Diclofenac through this stunning artwork.
