Voltage-Dependent Inhibition of Glycine Receptor Channels by Niflumic Acid

Voltage-Dependent Inhibition of Glycine Receptor Channels by Niflumic Acid

Niflumic acid (NFA) is a member of the fenamate class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This compound and its derivatives are used worldwide clinically for the relief of chronic and acute pain. NFA is also a commonly used blocker of voltage-gated chloride channels.
