Abstract:
The scaffold of this commentary is oriented to gravitate toward shedding light on the misconception regarding the use of enteric-coated, extended-release or sustained-release forms of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and the reduction in gastrointestinal (GI) risks. Although evidence is sufficiently available with regard to the inability of these forms to ameliorate GI risks, it has been widely neglected by health care professionals. This dilemma will be approached and elaborated by uncovering historical evidence about the topic of interest followed by theoretical pharmacological explanations.
