Tolfenamic acid (N-(2-methyl-3-chlorophenyl) anthranilic acid) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) belonging to the fenamate group. Tolfenamic acid exerts anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities. The anti-inflammatory activity of Tolfenamic acid is mainly due to an inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase and thus to a reduction in the synthesis of prostaglandins and thromboxanes, which are important inflammatory mediators.
Fenacid is indicated as an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic agent- Cattle: - As an adjunct in the treatment of acute mastitis, used in conjunction with antibacterial therapy. - As an aid in the control of acute inflammation associated with bacterial respiratory disease, used in conjunction with antibacterial therapy.
Tolfenamic acid is contraindicated in animals hypersensitive to it or to other drugs in its class. It should not be used in animals with active GI ulceration.
