Licofelone is a dual COX/LOX inhibitor^[1][2] being considered as a treatment for osteoarthritis^[3] and which is under development by Merckle GmbH with partners Alfa Wassermann and Lacer.

Licofelone is both an analgesic and an anti-inflammatory. Inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) may reduce the gastrointestinal toxicity associated with other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), which only inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX). Licofelone is the first drug to inhibit both. It has passed the phase III trials.^[4]
