NSAID analgesic drug
Ethenzamide (2-ethoxybenzamide) is a common analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug that is used for the relief of fever, headaches, and other minor aches and pains.[1][2] It is also an ingredient in numerous cold medications and many prescription analgesics.[citation needed] It is used as an over-the-counter drug in Japan, often in combination with caffeine and acetaminophen, where it is marketed for uses including toothache, menstrual cramps, headache, and fever.[3]
It is metabolized in vivo into salicylamide.[4]
