NSAIDs etc
Something of interest which I ran across- Ibuprofen delays or prevents, but most NSAIDs don't. What is different about ibuprofen? In another unrelated abstract I ran across the report that ibuprofen does a similar thing to the NMDA receptors that dextromethorphan cough syrup does. That is an action unrelated to inflammation (or coughing). That doesn't mean that inflammation is not important - in fact, it is critical - but rather that the NMDA receptors are of great importance. They are also the ones that MSG playshell with.
