Biochem/physiol Actions

Triflusal is an anti-inflammatory antithrombotic platelet aggregation inhibitor with a 3-fold mechanism of action.
Triflusal is an anti-inflammatory antithrombotic platelet aggregation inhibitor with a 3-fold mechanism of action. It is an irreversible inhibitor of COX-1 inhibiting thromboxane A2, preventing aggregation; it preserves vascular prostacyclin, thus promoting anti-aggregant effect. Triflusal blocks phosphodiesterase leading to an increase in cAMP levels promoting anti-aggregant effect due to inhibition of calcium mobilization.

Triflusal (Aflen, Disgren, Tecnosal, Triflux) is a novel platelet antiaggregant with structural similarities to salicylates, but which is not derived from aspirin. It has similar efficacy to aspirin in patients with cerebral or myocardial infarction, but has a reduced risk
José Antonio González-Correa et al.
Cardiovascular drug reviews, 24(1), 11-24 (2006-08-31)
Triflusal is a derivative of salicylic acid with a well-established platelet aggregation inhibitory profile. Its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties differ, however, somewhat from those of acetylsalicylic acid. A number of recent experimental and clinical studies have shown that triflusal is
W McNeely et al.
Drugs, 55(6), 823-833 (1998-06-09)
Triflusal is an antiplatelet agent structurally related to the salicylate group of compounds, but it is not derived from aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). Platelet antiaggregant properties of triflusal and its active 3-hydroxy-4-trifluoro-methylbenzoic acid metabolite are primarily mediated by specific inhibition of
