Interaction of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug naproxen sodium with DNA by electrochemical and spectroscopic methods

摘要

Naproxen sodium (NAPS), the sodium salt of (S)-6-methoxy-a-methyl-2-naphtalenacetic acid (Figure 1) is a non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug, which is used in the treatment of severe pain and inflammation. Naproxen blocks the enzyme that makes prostaglandins (cyclooxygenase),
