What are non selective NSAIDs?

Non-selective NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) are medications that inhibit both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, which play key roles in the inflammatory process and pain signaling. Common examples include ibuprofen, naproxen, and aspirin. While effective at reducing pain and inflammation, non-selective NSAIDs can also lead to gastrointestinal side effects, such as ulcers and bleeding, due to COX-1 inhibition, which protects the stomach lining. They are often used for conditions like Arthritis, muscle pain, and menstrual cramps.
