Quercetin Reduces Antinociceptive but Not the Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Indomethacin, Ketorolac, and Celecoxib in Rats with Gout-like Pain.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to determine the pharmacological interaction of some common NSAIDs in the presence of quercetin (QUER). Indomethacin (IND), ketorolac (KET), or celecoxib (CEL) were assessed alone and in combination with QUER using experimental gout-arthritic pain and the carrageenan-induced edema test in rats to evaluate their antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects, respectively. The antinociceptive effect of each NSAID was also analyzed after the repeated administration of QUER for 10 days. Molecular docking analysis on COX-1/COX-2 with each drug was explored to analyze the pharmacological interaction. QUER produced minimal antinociceptive or anti-inflammatory effects on experimental gout-arthritic pain or on the carrageenan-induced edema in rats. Additionally, QUER
