    Product Description

    Meclofenamate is a time-dependent, non-specific competitive inhibitor of COX-1 and -2. The IC50 values for inhibition of human recombinant COX-1 and -2 are 1.5 and 9.7 µM, respectively for instantaneous inhibition. However, the IC50 is much lower if pre-incubated with the enzyme.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
