Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Daypro Work?

Daypro works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is involved in the production of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are chemicals in the body that contribute to inflammation, pain, and fever. By blocking COX enzymes, Daypro reduces the levels of prostaglandins, thus alleviating inflammation and pain in conditions like arthritis.
