Fenoprofen (10 mg/kg, i.p.) reduces serum PGF2α levels in rats. It reduces acetic acid-induced writhing and stretching as well as formalin-induced licking behaviors, indicating analgesic activity, however, it also induces formation of gastric lesions in mice, a common adverse effect associated with NSAID administration.{37335}
