ABSTRACT

Resumen Los antiinflamatorios no esteroides son fármacos ampliamente prescritos en la práctica médica, mientras que los efectos secundarios más frecuentes son de índole gastrointestinal, en los últimos 10 años se ha cuestionado su seguridad cardiovascular. Los inhibidores de la ciclo-oxigenasa 2 (COX 2) fueron cuestionados en su seguridad cardiovascular debido a los resultados del estudio Vioxx Gastrointestinal Outcomes Research (VIGOR). En esta revisión se analizan los resultados del estudio Prospective Randomized Evaluation of Celecoxib Integrated Safety versus Ibuprofen or Naproxen (PRECISION), y sus repercusiones en las indicaciones actuales de estos fármacos.


Abstract Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are broad use drugs in the medical practice, their main adverse effects are gastrointestinal complications; however, in the last 10 years their cardiovascular safety has been questioned. The results from the Vioxx Gastrointestinal Outcomes Research (VIGOR) trial challenged the cardiovascular safety of Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX 2) inhibitors. In this review, the results of the Prospective Randomized Evaluation of Celecoxib Integrated Safety versus Ibuprofen or Naproxen (PRECISION) trial are analysed, as well as their impact on the latest indications for this family of drugs.
