Abstract

Current available evidence suggesting a role for oxygen free radicals in inflammatory processes is reviewed. The effects of NSAID as scavengers or inhibitors of superoxide anion generation are described. The anti-inflammatory effect of the superoxide dismutase drug version named Orgotein is discussed in relation to its enzymic activity and pharmacokinetics profile.
