Dexketoprofen is the (S)-enantiomer of ketoprofen. Technically it is a chiral switch of (±)-ketoprofen. The switch was done for a faster onset of action, a better therapeutic value. [3] Dexketoprofen consists of a propionic acid moiety connected to a benzophenone molecule by its second carbon.
Ketoprofen has one stereogenic center in the side chain and hence exists as mirror-image twins. Majority of the profens are marketed as racemic mixtures. For most of the NSAIDs the pharmacological activity resides in the (S)-enantiomers with their (R)-enantiomer virtually inactive.
Type A: augmented pharmacological effects, which are dose-dependent and predictable [5]; Type A reactions, which constitute approximately 80% of adverse drug reactions, are usually a consequence of the drug's primary pharmacological effect (e.g., bleeding when using the anticoagulant warfarin) or a low therapeutic index of the drug (e.g., nausea from digoxin), and they are therefore predictable.
The profens are a class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. [1] Profens are also known as 2-arylpropionic acids to reflect their chemical structure. [2] The most common example of a profen is ibuprofen, which has been sold under the brand name Profen among others.

Bernard Fisher, among the first to conduct a clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of adjuvant therapy on patients with breast cancer, described it as a "value judgement" in which the potential benefits must be evaluated against the toxicity and cost of treatment and other potential side effects. [30] Often related to fear of side effects ...
Biperiden is also commonly used to improve acute extrapyramidal side effects related to antipsychotic drug therapy, such as akathisia. It relieves muscle rigidity , reduces abnormal sweating related with clozapine and methadone use [ 9 ] [ 10 ] and salivation , improves abnormal gait , and to lesser extent, tremor .
