title: Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs: Monitoring to help prevent serious adverse effects.
abstract: Gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, and hematological adverse effects are all associated with the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Some patients are particularly at risk for such problems. Preventive measures and recommendations for managing and monitoring high-risk patients are presented. Patients receiving long-term NSAID therapy should be carefully monitored.
