So Ibuprofen is one of the most popular NSAIDs out there and it is propionic acid derivative which reversibly inhibits both COX1 and COX2. Does anyone know if Ibuprofen mimics arachidonic acid thus competitively inhibits cyclooxygenase? (Just like statin does to HMG-CoA reductase?)
Many thanks in advance.
