Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the cornerstone of the treatment of a wide range of painful conditions. Their efficiency and safety are well known. For more than three decades, nimesulide has been a successful representative of a subgroup of preferentially-acting NSAIDs. This text summarizes its basic characteristics, in the context of its obvious benefits and potential risks that define its position among other NSAIDs.

Keywords: NSAIDs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, pain, analgesics,nimesulide, cyclooxygenase, safety, hepatotoxicity.
