There's a lot written about the possible therapeutic role of various anti-inflammatory drugs. For instance, we have aspirin and curcumin and, now, Cosentyx. My question is: do these different anti-inflammatory drugs add anything except in terms of volume? For instance, could we get all the benefit found using all the drugs just by taking more aspirin? If this is the case, then it is just a matter of convenience as to what drug to use. Of course, sometimes, the size of the dose becomes so large that its practical use becomes compromised. But, that aside, is it worth looking for more compounds? Or should we put to trial existing drugs?
